Our therapists offer depression counseling services in Arkansas.

Hello, my name is Jessica Watt, a board-certified PMHNP with a passion for helping individuals improve their mental health. I care for adults in outpatient psychiatry and substance use treatment settings, providing psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and evidence-based care. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2015 and my Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University in 2022. I primarily work with adults experiencing substance use disorder, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, trauma-related concerns, insomnia, and other mood disorders.

I believe effective mental health treatment is built on trust, collaboration, and individualized care. I take time to listen to your concerns and develop a treatment plan that aligns with your goals. My approach combines evidence-based medication management with education and practical strategies to help you understand your symptoms and make progress.

Taking the first step can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to face it alone. Whether you are facing new challenges or struggling for years, you deserve compassionate care. I am committed to providing a safe, respectful, judgment-free space where you can feel empowered to make meaningful changes. If you are ready, I look forward to partnering with you.

I'm an LPC with 8 years of behavioral health experience. My main goal is to help clients find relief and growth in a safe, open, and supportive environment. I work extensively with children and adults, specializing in anxiety, depression, DMDD, adjustment disorders, and trauma. Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I provide practical tools to help you understand thought patterns and build healthy coping skills. Whether your child struggles with emotional regulation or you are navigating a difficult transition, we will work collaboratively toward healing.

In my practice, I blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Reality Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy. Working together, you can expect to focus on adjusting your thoughts to improve your behaviors and emotions, while honestly exploring the reality of your choices in a supportive environment.No matter what challenges you or your child are facing, you do not have to carry them alone. Taking the first step can be hard, but I am here to walk alongside you with compassion and support. Please reach out today; let's start building your path to healing together.

I am a LCSW licensed in 1989. Much of my career has been spent with military members and their families affording me with knowledge and insight into the complexities of military service. I have worked extensively with depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. I understand the burdens these painful circumstances bring. I believe in meeting clients where they are with compassion and empathy, and I believe in the indomitable human spirit. 

As a LCSW, I've had years of training in multiple methods of working with trauma including CBT, DBT, CBT-PTSD, ACT, Ego State, and EMDR. I believe in the worth of every individual and no two experiences are the same. I believe empathy, respect, and a nonjudgmental approach set the stage for positive client outcomes.

In choosing to engage in therapy with me, I hope you will find warmth and acceptance, a listening ear and understanding heart. Once you engage, you will find the process fluid, with you in charge of your goals and outcomes while I provide tools, support, feedback, and encouragement along the way.

My goal is to meet you and help you make the transformation you want. I truly believe everyone has the strength to make the changes they want in their life. Sometimes you need someone to walk alongside you as you navigate life obstacles and upsets. When you feel overwhelmed, hopeless, or uncomfortable, I can help you work through these challenges so you can live with more clarity, purpose, and sustaining joy.

I specialize in CBT, Relational Theory, and EMDR. What can I help you with? Depression, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, body issues, and grief. If you are feeling depressed , you can expect to learn coping strategies. Feeling anxious? Expect a safe place to work through it. Are you struggling with past trauma? You can expect a judgement-free support zone. 

I believe empathy, caring, and nonjudgement are the cornerstones of therapeutic relationships and are essential for therapy to be a success. I look forward to working with you, so you can reach your goals.
