I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in helping people find solutions to their problems. Over the years, I have been told by clients that they really feel that I am listening to them and trying to understand what is going on in their lives and how they feel. Clients have also told me that they do not feel any sense of judgment, but rather that I accept them for who they are and where they are in their life’s journey. My style is empathetic and solution focused. I will spend time asking you questions in order to get to know you and try to find out what is at the heart of your issue. Together, we will talk about possible avenues you may want to take, or changes you may want to consider. I may give you some “homework” assignments…things to write out or think about, worksheets to complete, or even techniques/exercises to practice in your own time so that some of what we discuss in our sessions is reinforced. Most of all, I will be an objective listener, helping you to gain insight into what is going on with you, so that you are able to make the choices and changes you want to, in your own time. I look forward to working with you!

36 years offering treatment

I have a Doctorate Degree in Counseling and 36 years of professional experience as a Licensed Psychologist and Licensed Professional Counselor in Arkansas. I was a graduate school professor of Counseling for 11years before beginning my private practice. After resigning my academic position, I provided individual, marital, and family counseling in a private practice setting for 36 years to clients (children through adults) with a wide variety of clinical issues. I believe people enter counseling seeking change, and that rapid change is possible as people already possess many of the resources needed for change. Client resources blossom quickly in a therapeutic relationship that is safe, warm, interactive, and facilitates hope. In counseling, I seek to facilitate a corrective emotional experience where a client relives a past, often painful emotional situational in the present, but with my providing a healthier, affirming response, effectively “correcting” the original traumatic experience and allowing for new, healing emotional patterns to form. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I look forward to joining you on your therapeutic journey.
