Elderly Persons Disorders Therapists in Little Rock, AR

I help adults and families navigate the emotional impact of aging-related concerns, including cognitive changes, caregiver stress, grief, role shifts, and questions about identity and independence. Therapy can provide support, practical coping tools, and space to process the many feelings that often come with this stage of life.

As a psychologist specializing in geriatric care, my approach to treatment is holistic, person-centered, and tailored to the unique needs of older adults. I prioritize building a trusting and compassionate therapeutic relationship, recognizing the diverse life experiences and challenges that come with aging. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), supportive counseling, and reminiscence therapy, I address a wide range of concerns including adjustment to life transitions, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and cognitive changes. I collaborate closely with other healthcare professionals and family members to ensure comprehensive care and support. Additionally, I integrate strengths-based approaches to help older adults identify and leverage their resilience and coping skills. My goal is to promote emotional well-being, enhance quality of life, and empower older adults to navigate the aging process with dignity and resilience.

I work with older adults and their families who are navigating cognitive changes, neurological conditions, and emotional challenges related to aging. Therapy focuses on emotional support, coping strategies, and maintaining quality of life while addressing concerns such as memory changes, adjustment to illness, and the stress that can come with these transitions.

I am committed to serving older adults. I have extensive experience working with clients who are navigating challenges of aging, the loss of a spouse or partner, challenges with adult children, and the social and emotional challenges of aging.

Getting to advanced age can be a blessing, but it also presents many challenges. Retirement, lifestyle changes, health issues, cognitive decline, are just some of those challenges. Finding purpose and value in all life stages requires accepting changes and adapting to new circumstances.

Little Rock is Arkansas's state capital and its most significant healthcare hub — home to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) and a concentration of major hospital systems — creating a well-developed mental health training and clinical infrastructure relative to the city's size. The city's African American community — which comprises roughly forty percent of Little Rock proper — drives important demand for culturally affirming therapists who work with racial trauma, intergenerational resilience, and the particular dynamics of a Southern city still navigating the legacy of its civil rights history, including the 1957 Central High School crisis. Baptist Health and CHI St. Vincent provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community. Little Rock's role as a regional medical center means it draws therapy clients from across a wide rural surrounding area where local access is limited.
