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.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience working with individuals across the lifespan, including college students, veterans, and neurodivergent clients. I specialize in areas such as ADHD, autism, anxiety, grief, trauma, and emotional regulation, and I believe each client is the expert on their own life.
Hi. I'm Susan (Simmons) Martinelli and, simply stated, "I love people"...every individual one. I have over 30 years' experience in the mental health field with people who may also suffer with substance use and addiction or vice versa. The two often go hand-in-hand and it can be a devastating and life-changing moment to realize you possibly have either a mental illness and/ or a substance/ alcohol use problem. I simply want to help you find your healthy path...whatever that is for you. I look forward to learning about you as a person and what we can accomplish together.
Many of the people I work with are intelligent, capable, and doing their best to keep up with the demands of daily life, yet internally they feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck. You may find yourself constantly overthinking, struggling to stay organized, starting tasks but having difficulty finishing them, or feeling frustrated that things seem harder for you than they do for others. Perhaps your mind rarely slows down, your to-do list feels impossible to tackle, or you're carrying anxiety, stress, or depression that leaves you feeling drained and disconnected from the life you want to be living. Therapy can be a place to better understand what's getting in the way and develop strategies that actually work for you.
Hello! I love working with people facing addiction, anxiety, depression, or parenting challenges. I’m here to support you with warmth and understanding every step of the way.
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.
I believe we’re all doing the best we can, and that belief guides my work as a therapist. I care deeply about people and feel honored to be someone you can bring the hard things to. I’m down-to-earth, professional, and shaped by a diverse background that led me to counseling as my life’s work.

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.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Little Rock
Finding the right therapist or psychiatrist for ADHD in Little Rock starts with understanding the type of care you need. A therapist — such as a licensed professional counselor (LPC), licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), or psychologist — can help you build strategies for managing focus, impulsivity, and day-to-day structure. If you're also exploring additional treatment options, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can help you discuss what may be appropriate for your situation. Some people choose to work with more than one type of provider, depending on their needs and after consulting a qualified healthcare professional.
With providers practicing across the Little Rock metro — from Midtown and the Heights to Chenal Valley and beyond — narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most: a provider who works with adults, children, or both; someone experienced with ADHD specifically; and whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and approach before you commit.
Therapy in Little Rock can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before booking, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an ADHD provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
