Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Springdale, AR

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.

Hello, and welcome. With over 15 years in the counseling field, I continue to feel deeply called to this work and honored to support people through life’s challenges. Many of the clients I work with are navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship issues, and emotional overwhelm. Sometimes people come to therapy feeling stuck, discouraged, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to be a steady source of support where you feel heard, respected, and encouraged as you work through what is weighing on you and begin moving toward healing and growth.

When life gives you lemons...

My education gave me the tools to be a skilled clinician. But it was my own trauma that gave me the insight and depth I bring to this work. I know what it feels like to live in a body that doesn’t feel safe—to question everything, including yourself. I spent over a decade learning how to heal, reclaim my voice, and become the kind of guide I once needed.

In the midst of that long journey, I had a quiet moment of clarity: what I was going through wasn’t just about survival—it was about becoming someone who could walk with others through the dark. That experience grounds my work in both knowledge and deep compassion.

Learning to love the desert

I’ve come to believe that being lost isn’t a problem—it’s part of the path. Like La Loba, the mythical bone-gatherer who wanders the desert collecting what’s been buried and brings it back to life, I help others gather what they’ve lost along the way. That process is sacred, slow, and often surprising—but it’s how we come home to ourselves.

There are parts of you that haven’t died; they’ve just been waiting. And sometimes, when it all falls apart, that’s when the wild, wise parts of you rise again.

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.

I am a graduate of Arkansas Tech University and completed the Rehabilitation Counseling program through the University of Arkansas at Little Rock to obtain my Master's degree. I have worked in several positions that have allowed me to gain experience in helping those who suffer from drug addiction, mental illness, abuse survivors, and so much more. A few of the facilities I have worked with include Freedom House, Birchtree Communities, Pinnacle Pointe Outpatient, and RPI (Real Practices Inc) all in the Russellville area. My biggest take-away from my experiences is that each person is different and there cannot be a "one-size fits all" when it comes to therapy and treatment. I enjoy getting to know a person as an individual and learning what that person needs in order to improve and be their best self.

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.
