A Short Drive for Deep Care

Why Fayetteville Clients Choose Our Practice

University of Arkansas Old Main building — a historic landmark in Fayetteville near trauma counseling services

We are proud to support the University of Arkansas community;  faculty, staff, and students navigating the pressures of academic life.

Understanding Academic Life

Fayetteville is home to a vibrant university community with unique pressures: publish-or-perish stress, imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and the emotional toll of high expectations. I understand these dynamics and offer trauma-informed support that respects your intellect while addressing what is underneath.

Worth the Drive — or Virtual

Our Bentonville office is about 25-30 minutes from Fayetteville. Many clients find the drive creates a helpful boundary between "work life" and "healing time." Prefer to stay home? Our telehealth sessions are equally effective and available anywhere in Arkansas.

For Creatives & Thinkers

Fayetteville attracts artists, writers, musicians, and deep thinkers who often feel misunderstood by conventional therapy. We honor the complexity of creative minds and work with the full spectrum of your experience — including the parts that feel messy, intense, or hard to name.

Body-Based Healing That Works

We specialize in Brainspotting and somatic therapy — approaches that go deeper than traditional talk therapy. For Fayetteville clients dealing with long-standing anxiety, trauma, or burnout, these methods offer relief that actually lasts by working with the nervous system directly.
