Melissa Davison

Therapist

Virtual • Arkansas


Hi, I’m Missy Davison, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) serving clients in Texas and Arkansas. With over 17 years of experience, I specialize in helping older teens and adults heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and life’s difficult challenges.

As a Christian trauma therapist, I believe healing is possible and that no one should have to walk through their struggles alone. My goal is to provide a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental space where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you work toward lasting healing and peace.

I am trained in evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT). Together, we will find the approach that best fits your unique needs, helping you process painful experiences, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and move forward with greater confidence and freedom.

For clients who desire it, I also integrate Christian faith into the counseling process, offering a foundation of hope, grace, and encouragement alongside proven therapeutic techniques.

Taking the first step toward healing can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. It would be an honor to walk alongside you as you move from surviving to truly living with greater peace, healing, and hope.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arkansas

Searching for therapists in Arkansas starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want to work on. Across the state, available therapists and specialties can vary between larger cities, smaller towns, and rural communities. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with concerns like yours. Bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Location and format can also shape your search. In Little Rock, Fayetteville, Fort Smith, and other parts of Arkansas, some people prefer an in-person office, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility. You can also narrow your options by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, free phone consultations, and the structure of sessions. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what they focus on, and what to expect in a first appointment.

The cost of mental health care in Arkansas varies, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you search for Arkansas therapists who accept insurance, verify your benefits, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your plan and location as you search. From there, you can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

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