Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Arkansas covered by Cigna

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.

Hello and welcome! Seeking therapy takes a lot of courage and finding the right therapist is an important part of that process. I have experience working with adults facing a variety of challenges including depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, severe mental illness, and problems with motivation and self-esteem.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience helping adults navigate some of the harder things life brings — anxiety, PTSD, OCD, grief, bipolar disorder, maternal mental health, infertility, eating disorders, and chronic illness, among others. I work with adults of all backgrounds and I'm fully LGBTQIA+-affirming. I see all of my clients via telehealth, which means if you're anywhere in Arkansas, we can work together — no commute, no waiting room. I'm warm and I'm direct, and I don't believe in keeping you in therapy longer than you need to be.

I work with adults who are ready for a more honest, compassionate relationship with themselves. In our work, we’ll slow down and make sense of your experiences, including the parts that may feel confusing, overwhelming, or hard to name. Together, we’ll explore unprocessed feelings, long‐standing patterns, and the stories you carry about yourself and others. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in genuine curiosity. I aim to offer a space where your innermost thoughts and emotions can be expressed without judgment, and where you can feel both gently challenged and deeply understood. I see adults in both individual and couples therapy and welcome people with diverse identities, relationships, and backgrounds.

I have over 15 years of experience within the mental health field. I hold a PhD in Clinical Mental Health Counseling Education and Supervision. I am also a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in AR. I am also a Principal Investigator on many clinical trials for various companies.

Kayla, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in community mental health, recognized the profound disparities in access to mental health care within BIPOC communities. Inspired by a vision of creating a space where healing is both inclusive and affordable, she founded Helen’s Project with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of their background or financial situation.​​Helen’s Project operates on the principle that culturally competent and empathetic mental health care is essential for holistic well-being. The organization collaborates with a diverse team of mental health professionals who not only possess clinical expertise but also understand the unique cultural nuances and challenges faced by the BIPOC community.

I’ve witnessed the power of therapy to bring healing and growth across many settings and life circumstances. Seeing lives change through this work continually reminds me what a privilege it is to step into someone’s story and walk alongside them toward greater understanding, peace, and resilience.

My commitment to you is simple: I will listen carefully, communicate openly, and act with integrity in every interaction. I’ll take the time to understand your unique goals, challenges, and values, and I’ll tailor my approach to meet your needs rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions. You can expect transparency from me at every step. I’ll explain not only what I recommend, but why I recommend it, so you always feel informed and empowered to make decisions.

Welcome. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am here to step into the emotional trenches of life with you. My goal is to lean in and help you uncover your strengths, identify your needs, and grow in your relationships. I have experience in both school and private practice settings and specialize in attachment, parenting struggles, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and relationship concerns. I believe hard seasons are easier to navigate when you have steady, compassionate support.
