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.
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.
I am open minded, kind, direct, and empowering. I encourage others to improve their skills.

I am a certified cognitive behavioral therapist who is also mindful of the emotions we feel as humans. I believe therapy is holistic—mind, body, and well-being. My goal is to create a safe and judgment-free place to help guide and support you. I was previously an elementary school teacher. I am neurodivergent and enjoy working with the neurodivergent population.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Smackover
Searching for therapists in Smackover starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, grief, or life changes. It can also help to look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs, such as trauma therapy, family counseling, marriage counseling, or support for identity-related concerns. Reading therapist bios can show you how each therapist approaches sessions, which methods they use, and what kinds of concerns they often support.
In a smaller city like Smackover, the number of local in-person therapy options may be more limited than in larger Arkansas communities. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Arkansas. As you compare therapists, consider appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Therapist profiles can also help you understand communication style, session structure, and whether their approach feels aligned with what you want from care.
Therapy in Smackover can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, compare specialties and availability, review detailed bios, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, so you can find a therapist who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and is ready to take new patients.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
