Hi, thanks for taking some time to get to know me. I am Dr. Scott Butler. I am licensed in Louisiana and Arkansas as a Licensed Professional Counselor. I earned a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from LSU and a Master’s and Ph.D. in mental health counseling from the University of New Orleans. I've been offering counseling for over 30 years. I was married for 30 years and have three daughters; one is an attorney, one is a licensed professional counselor, working on her Ph.D. and my youngest is a junior in college. I have worked in many different mental health settings including hospitals, crisis intervention hotlines, non-profit organizations, as a preferred provider for local and state agencies and over 20 years in adoption and foster care work. I have been deemed an expert witness in criminal and civil cases and have authored one novel, king cake baby. I use a cognitive-behavioral theoretical approach to counseling which is a goal-oriented treatment that takes a hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving. I generally do 45 minute sessions. If interested in working with me, please provide your full name and an emergency contact name and number as this is required to facilitate professional counseling. Life can be difficult, right? Sometimes, despite our best intentions, we simply need someone to help guide us to a better place. I am a trained listener. I take in the information you provide and turn it back to you in a step by step approach to help you move beyond what brought you to me. Beginning this process with the right counselor helps you get better, faster. I hope to be that counselor.

Hello! My name is Pam Goucher. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in both Arkansas and Tennessee with over 30 years of experience working as a clinical therapist. I have experience in behavioral health and medical social work, so I have an understanding of the impact medical issues can have on someone's life. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar, trauma, parenting and relationship issues. I have also worked with individuals who have experienced alcoholism/addictions. I am familiar with the 12-steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. I am most comfortable with a Christian approach, but I am accepting of and have worked with various religious beliefs and lifestyles including LGBTQ. I come from a military background as my father was a Vietnam vet and my son has completed 5 tours of duty in Iraq/Afghanistan. I am also a grandparent raising a grandchild. So as you can see, I am a fairly experienced, well- rounded person. I understand that sometimes life just happens and we need help making sense of it all! My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I am open minded and accepting of others. I will not judge you or present as biased. My therapy style is eclectic, as I use whatever your unique and specific needs call for. I do tend to lean more towards cognitive-behavioral therapy though as I believe every situation provokes a thought--a thought a feeling-- which in turn produces an attitude or behavior. I also like to explore your family of origin issues as those early family dynamics do tend to influence who we are today. I always start by reassuring my clients that they aren't crazy or weird...what you're feeling is normal for what you are experiencing right now. Anyone in your shoes would most likely be feeling the same way. It's okay and you're okay! We can figure it out together:) I look forward to working with you!

I am a licensed professional counselor doing business as Jones Professional Counseling, LLC in Conway, Arkansas. I graduated from Hendrix College in 1990 with a bachelor’s degree in psychology. I earned my master’s degree in professional psychology from Forest Institute of Professional Psychology in 1998. My grandfather, who in addition to being a terrific companion in any outdoor activity, was one of the first PhD psychologists in the state of Missouri, and very influential in my decision to be a licensed professional counselor. And I, too, love spending time outdoors. Most of my work has been with youth and adults who have personal, family and/or relationship issues. I find that using combinations of the individualized cognitive behavioral therapy approach (CBT) and important aspects of the Humanistic and Psychodynamic approaches has been the most effective and useful therapeutic tools for my clients. After earning my master’s degree in 1998, I began working with emotionally challenged youth at Boys’ and Girls’ Town in St. James, Missouri. There, I helped my clients individually, with their parents and in groups to help them overcome issues such as problems with authority figures, various abuse issues, problems with anxiety and low self-esteem. Most of my clients were children, adolescents and their guardians. This often involved providing parents and foster parents with the support and guidance they needed to care for their children who were dealing problems such as autism or ADHD. Like my grandfather, I have gained wisdom and much satisfaction in helping others. My work experience has led me from helping emotionally challenged youth in an outdoor setting to helping them along with their families in inpatient and outpatient situations in my office, in their homes, and virtually online through Better Help, Incorporated. This has often involved helping adults, children and adolescents with a variety of other issues including substance abuse, oppositional or conduct disorder, and relationship issues. Respectfully yours, F. Dunn Jones, MA, LPC, NBCC If you are in crisis and need to talk to someone NOW, call or text 988 (the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline), or call 866-903-3787 (the National Mental Health Hotline-MHH).
