Let us meet you exactly where you're at!

We can address a variety of concerns including but not limited to anxiety, depression, eating disorders, women's issues, substance use, trauma, grief & loss, and Borderline Personality Disorder.
In office or via telehealth?
The choice is yours!
With rising gas prices, busy schedules, or maybe even a lack of clinicians in rural areas, some people prefer the convenience of virtual care via video telehealth. Some people would prefer to come in office. NWA Therapy ofers the convenience of appointments in office in Fayetteville, AR or across the states of Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri with telehealth.
Couples & Families
Sometimes we need help communicating and feeling understood by our loved ones. Sometimes we need support in parenting and creating the best environment for our kids. Couples and family counseling can be an important part of therapy! We are here to facilitate communication and conflict resolution to strengthen relationships, provide parenting support, and address concerning behaviors.
Therapy for Children & Teens
We work with children as young as three years old as well as adolescents. Children communicate via play, and play therapy can help kids process feelings they may not have the language to address. Our great team of providers that work with children and adolescents have training specific to that treating that age group.
