Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Smackover, AR

Hi there, it is nice to meet you! I am Shantina, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides comprehensive mental health care through a secure telehealth platform. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, listening to music, singing, and fostering dogs, and I'm a huge animal lover.

I’m a seasoned therapist, minister, and educator who supports clients navigating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, and challenges with anger or emotional regulation. I believe therapy is a space for honest self-exploration, healing, and meaningful personal growth. My goal is to meet you with compassion and curiosity while creating a safe, supportive environment where you can better understand yourself, work through painful experiences, and move toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I’m Jason, a bilingual Spanish/English therapist who loves helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. I take an active, authentic approach—clients often describe me as warm, relatable, and safe, yet willing to challenge you in ways that foster real insight and growth.

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 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 shouldn't have to leave parts of yourself at the door to feel understood, especially in therapy. I'm Kaylia, and I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Arkansas–Fort Smith and my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from John Brown University. I love working with teens and adults as they build confidence, connection, and emotional insight. I support clients navigating ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, stress, relationship issues, women’s issues, caregiver fatigue, bipolar disorder, panic disorders, infertility, maternal mental health concerns, and challenges connected to church leadership roles. My goal is to meet you with warmth, curiosity, and compassion wherever you are in your journey.

Firm in the thought, patients are the expert and I am just a guide. I aspire to assist in the process of patients exploring the best way to achieve a healthy, whole, and full life. During my tenure in the mental health field, I have earned a Masters in Human Services and a PhD in Marriage & Family Therapy. I believe with proper support, understanding, and guidance patients can achieve the level their goals in a lasting way, setting them up for the future.
