More about Cheryl

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

As a licensed therapist in Arkansas, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each person's unique journey, with expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and self-esteem challenges.

I offer a supportive environment where clients can explore difficult experiences, including issues related to relationships, life transitions, workplace stress, and personal growth. My therapeutic practice centers on helping individuals develop stronger self-understanding, improve communication skills, and build resilience.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I work collaboratively with clients across diverse backgrounds, including young adults, veterans, and individuals experiencing significant life changes. Whether you're struggling with social anxiety, processing trauma, or seeking greater personal fulfillment, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional guidance.

My goal is to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can discover your inner strength and develop meaningful strategies for healing and personal transformation.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
