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.
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 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.
You might be feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or trying to manage the effects of past trauma while also navigating relationships or family challenges. It can feel exhausting trying to handle everything on your own.
I work with individuals, couples, and families dealing with anxiety, trauma, and relationship stress, helping you feel more supported, understood, and able to move forward with confidence.
Hello! My name is Kathy Reynolds. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arkansas. I have a Telehealth private practice in Rogers, AR. I graduated from Harding University in 2009 and have over 25 years' experience in the mental health care field. I specialize in Domestic Violence, High Conflict Relationships, Grief, PTSD, and Trauma therapy. I work with older adolescents, adults, families, and couples. My approach with therapy is CBT with some EMDR techniques as well as systems therapy to assist families as a whole. If you are struggling and questioning where to turn, why not set up an appointment with me and together let's empower you to reach your highest potential. I am excited to come along with you on the journey to reach your best self.
Hi, I’m Deborah M. Rago, LCSW. I hold master’s degrees in both Social Work and Human Services, and I’ve spent more than three decades supporting clients across Arkansas in inpatient and outpatient mental health settings. My experience includes working with grief and loss, personality disorders, addictions, professional stress, and trauma.
If you’re facing a difficult season or feeling overwhelmed by what you’re carrying, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to offer compassionate, experienced support as you work toward greater understanding and meaningful change.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and my main focus is helping minors and adults address problematic sexual behaviors, men’s issues, and the unique experiences of those who identify as LGBTQ+.
I also work with couples who are navigating the challenges of polyamory and exploring healthy relationship dynamics.
I offer a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive space for clients to explore challenges related to substance use, codependency, anxiety, depression, and trauma.
I specialize in mood disorders, anxiety, and chronic pain — and I bring the same compassionate curiosity to every client I work with. I understand that reaching out for help can feel scary. Many of my clients come in worried they won't be believed, or anxious about how they'll be perceived. I want you to know that you are safe here — your experience is valid, and you will never be judged. Outside of the clinic, you'll find me knitting or tending to my freshwater aquariums, which keeps me grounded and reminds me to appreciate the slow, steady work of growth.
Do you feel lost and broken? Does life seem hopeless right now? It’s not. Your trauma and pain can actually be an essential part of transforming your life. There is no substitute for painful life experience in moving you toward learning to experience life in the moment, with a greater sense of purpose and contentment.
Seeking help can be the first step to acquire greater understanding and insight into our lives and relationships.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Little Rock
Searching for LGBTQIA+ therapists in Little Rock starts with finding identity-affirming care that fits your specific needs. Look for therapists who name experience with LGBTQIA+ clients, affirmative therapy, gender-diverse care, or WPATH training in their profiles. This can be especially helpful if you want support with identity, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, family dynamics, or stress related to work, school, or community settings. A therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and training can help you understand whether their background matches the care you want.
Little Rock has a range of therapy options, and affirming therapists may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual appointments can expand your search beyond nearby offices while still helping you stay connected to care in Arkansas. As you compare therapists, consider appointment availability, whether they are accepting new clients, and whether their background or lived experience matters to you. Reading bios before booking can help you see how each therapist describes their work with LGBTQIA+ people, their communication style, and what a first session may look like.
Therapy in Little Rock can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, review profiles, verify insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists in Little Rock, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
