Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Parenting is one of the most rewarding and most challenging roles an adult can take on — and yet it is one of the areas where people are least likely to ask for help. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I work with parents navigating parenting stress, child behavioral challenges, co-parenting conflict, blended family dynamics, parenting after divorce, and the emotional weight of raising children through difficult seasons. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and solution-focused intervention, I help parents develop practical tools, healthier communication patterns, and greater confidence in their role. Telehealth parenting therapy available across 40+ states.

Linda Friedman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I understand the profound impact a child's challenging behavior can have on the entire family. It strains parental relationships and takes an emotional toll on daily interactions with your child. The journey might feel overwhelming, but there is hope!
As a nationally certified provider of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), I specialize in bringing about transformative changes in children's behaviors, turning family dynamics from stress-ridden to harmonious. I’m committed to assisting families facing challenges such as tantrums, oppositionality, defiance, and aggression.
What sets PCIT apart is its proven effectiveness, backed by over 30 years of research. It's not just a treatment; it's a powerful solution designed for children grappling with behavioral and emotional difficulties. The "secret sauce" lies in the live coaching sessions, where I’ll support you, implementing PCIT tools in real-time. The in the moment feedback empowers parents to quickly master skills that results in tangible improvements in their child's behavior.

Jennifer Burleson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Parenting can be one of the most meaningful—and most overwhelming—roles in life. Whether you’re navigating tantrums, teen independence, behavioral challenges, or the daily stress of balancing it all, it’s easy to feel exhausted, uncertain, or stretched thin. You may question your decisions, worry you’re not doing enough, or struggle with guilt and self-doubt. In therapy, we focus on strengthening your confidence, improving communication and boundaries, and helping you parent in a way that aligns with your values—while also caring for your own well-being.

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 a majority 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.
