Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Fayetteville, AR

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience working with individuals across the lifespan, including college students, veterans, and neurodivergent clients. I specialize in areas such as ADHD, autism, anxiety, grief, trauma, and emotional regulation, and I believe each client is the expert on their own life.

I specialize in mood disorders, anxiety, and chronic pain — and I bring the same compassionate curiosity to every client I work with. I understand that reaching out for help can feel scary. Many of my clients come in worried they won't be believed, or anxious about how they'll be perceived. I want you to know that you are safe here — your experience is valid, and you will never be judged. Outside of the clinic, you'll find me knitting or tending to my freshwater aquariums, which keeps me grounded and reminds me to appreciate the slow, steady work of growth.

Sometimes life asks more of us than we feel prepared to give. Anxiety, depression, family conflict, grief, or major life transitions can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, or uncertain about what comes next. You may have spent so much time taking care of responsibilities that you've forgotten to take care of yourself. You don't have to keep carrying that weight alone. I partner with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, family issues, stress management, and grief and loss so they can find greater emotional balance, strengthen important relationships, and move forward with renewed confidence and purpose. Working with adolescents, adults, and seniors, I strive to create a supportive, judgment free environment where meaningful growth feels both possible and sustainable.

Life can be overwhelming when you're carrying anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, addiction, or simply trying to keep everything together. You may feel stuck, exhausted, or unsure where to go next. Therapy doesn't have to feel intimidating. My goal is to provide a space where you can be yourself, feel understood, and start making meaningful progress toward the life you want.

Do you feel lost and broken? Does life seem hopeless right now? It’s not. Your trauma and pain can actually be an essential part of transforming your life. There is no substitute for painful life experience in moving you toward learning to experience life in the moment, with a greater sense of purpose and contentment.

Seeking help takes courage, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and respected without judgment.
