Welcome and congratulations on taking this step! I work with individuals who struggle with self-image, anxiety, depression, and self-motivation. I have been practicing for over 8 years. I will work with you to find your strengths and aid in building with you from there.
Seeking help takes courage, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and respected without judgment. I believe that every person's story is unique, and mental health care should reflect that. My goal is to build a collaborative relationship where we work together to understand your concerns, identify your strengths, and develop a treatment plan that aligns with your values and goals.
As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide evidence-based medication management while taking the time to understand the whole person, not just symptoms.
I have been working in the mental health field for over 20 years, graduating with a Masters of Arts in Clinical Psychology in 2004. I have experience working in diverse settings including acute inpatient psychiatry, community mental health, and outpatient ambulatory care and private practice. I have worked with all ages and various populations and bring a welcoming, open-minded perspective to therapy sessions.
My name is Shannon Overcash, and I have been a therapist for ten years. I hold my LPC and LMFT licenses in Arkansas. I am somewhat new to telehealth, but am excited to experience this journey.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fayetteville
Searching for therapists in Fayetteville starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist experience fits your needs. People look for therapy in Fayetteville for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and work stress. As you compare Fayetteville therapists, look for specialties and training that match your goals. A therapist’s bio can show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Fayetteville is a smaller city, so your local in-person options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy can add more choices across Arkansas while still letting you meet with a licensed therapist from a place that fits your day. When comparing a Fayetteville therapist, consider appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Fayetteville can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, offers upfront cost estimates after you add your insurance details, and shows therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
