I help adolescents, couples, and adults to work through adjustments, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, OCD, and trauma and create a life they love. When you are on a rollercoaster of spiraling thoughts and painful emotions, you feel broken, unseen, or voiceless. You may be experiencing confusion, guilt, pain, or shame, but you don’t have to stay there. I have great compassion for the difficulties you are experiencing, and I look forward to working with you to find your inner strength and assist you in living a happy, fulfilling life.

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 in empowering people to take charge of their own present and future lives. Generally, when you seek therapy, you are overwhelmed and ready to change. I believe you have it within yourself to make sense of your life, focus on creating the life you desire, and feel in control. I use strength and solution-based, client -centered psychotherapy. I am nonjudgmental, compassionate, and have a sense of humor. Regardless of the weight of therapy, we will also laugh!

Welcome! Fourteen years in, this still moves me. ❤️ Let's see if any of this sounds familiar: You check the locks again on your way to bed. You reread the text nine times, send it, then apologize for sending it. You sit in the car in the driveway a minute longer than you need to. You are steady in the hospital hallway and you come apart in the cereal aisle. Your kid gets called defiant by adults who have never seen him tired. You know which friends stopped calling first. You have carried this well, and you have carried it alone, and both of those cost you something. This is for you. Children, teenagers, adults, people starting over at sixty-eight.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Little Rock

Searching for postpartum therapists in Little Rock starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or postpartum support. A PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health care.

In Little Rock, your search may include therapists near home, work, or a pediatrician’s office, along with virtual options across Arkansas. For new parents, virtual care can make it easier to attend sessions around infant care, physical recovery, and changing schedules. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their communication style, specialties, and what sessions may be like before you book.

Postpartum 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. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, may accept many insurance plans, and are available for new clients. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated costs before booking, then review profiles and schedule directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
