Blytheville is in the heart of Arkansas and was renowned for its cotton plantations. However, as times changed and slavery was made illegal, the cotton industry was forced to change the way it operated. Although it was for the better, change wasn’t always an effortless process.

The same can be true for our mental health - although we know that it is important to prioritize it, it can be a tough process to seek out and stick to getting help. Luckily, just like the cotton industry in Blytheville, you too can embrace change and move forward toward a more positive outcome. Reach out to a nearby therapist today.

I have had over a half-century of clinical experience, and have worked with a broad variety of clients. I see each client as a unique individual with a distinct array of problems and questions. I do not limit myself to a specific "brand" of psychotherapy, but instead design a treatment approach to match the individual client's needs, all the while recognizing that the client's situation may evolve, priorities may change, new goals may arise, and that psychotherapy at its best is often a process of illuminating a path to self fulfillment.
