Overwhelming anxiety, depression, insomnia or unbalanced ? I invite you to take a journey, learn how to befriend your body. I utilize a Neuroaffective Relational Model (NARM) approach. The model targets: •affect regulation •attachment •attunement •interpersonal/social connection • body regulation. The model is "resource orientated", meaning towards your strengths and potentials, rather than problems and conflicts. The emphasis is on collaboration. Research supports this treatment as effective with the following populations: Autism Spectrum Sensory Processing Developmental Trauma Complex Trauma

If so, you have come to the right place. I specialize in providing compassionate support for individuals navigating lifelong trauma, often stemming from early experiences that shape their sense of self and well-being. Whether you're grappling with visible or invisible wounds, I am here to help you understand your experiences, learn practical skills, and embark on a journey towards healing and self-discovery.

Marital or relationship problems, traumatic past, depression, anxiety, frustration, anger, unable to focus or concentrate, alcohol or substance abuse, or just struggling to take the next step in life. These are just a fraction of the issues and problems I help people with every day. People want peace in their lives, but the reality is peace has a price. Our lives are entangled in responsibilities and relationships that are extremely difficult and take a heavy toll upon us mentally. In many cases we are to believe that if you can't see the hurt or the pain then it doesn't exist. It does and it is real. There is help and it is here.

Are future fears preventing you from living today? Is the past weighing you down? Are fears of others ( how they may react, will they be angry, will they reject, will they drink or use drugs...) keeping you from being real? Depression, anxiety, trauma, dependency, co-dependency; I am here to help you through the minefield.

Something has to change. You're tired, stressed and confused. You thought you would be further in life. You want happiness and fulfillment, but you don't know where to start. Maybe you are looking for a sense of direction. Or you feel overwhelmed by depression and anxiety and just want peace of mind. As your therapist, I want you to have hope, feel inspired and be filled with a new passion for life. I truly believe this is possible... So let's get started!

My hope for you is increased happiness, peace and coping. I honor the courage it takes to engage in talk therapy. I have been a licensed counselor (LPC) for over 30 years and I enjoy helping others. I am capable of working with a variety of client ages and issues. I believe that each person who engages in therapy deserves a tailored plan we develop together to help with your specific situations. I believe that processing feelings and thoughts along with education in a non-judgmental and safe environment can move you from surviving to thriving. I'm happy to help you!

It can be difficult to balance all the needs and demands of life, as well as those of people you love and care for, while still taking care of yourself. Circumstances can be made even more difficult when a person is dealt a major setback in the form of depression, anxiety, family or work stress, or a traumatic experience. The good news is that each of us has the strength and courage necessary to overcome even the most challenging obstacles. Sometimes we just need some help to realize our strengths and then put together a plan to make the most of them.

A therapist’s job is to guide people in realizing their potential and to reconnect with their authentic self. My approach stresses self-acceptance through recognizing, examining and effectively expressing our thoughts, feelings, and needs, as well as exploring any unfinished business from our past. Thoughts may be a source of suffering for many, and I help people examine their internal dialogue and break unhealthy patterns. These patterns are often the result of defense structures built of necessity to survive exposure to traumas and other behaviors modeled for us since childhood. As a Licensed Psychological Examiner - Independent I also administer clinical evaluations including IQ/Achievement, ADHD, and psychological/personality assessments. Since beginning practice in 2001 I was employed as an adjunct professor and clinical instructor of psychology at The University of Central Arkansas for 12 years and have been in private practice in Little Rock since 2002. I also have completed 21 hours of master level of teaching and counseling the gifted and talented student.

Spicy? Artsy? Neurodivergent? Hypermobile? Me too. Those on the fringe are my favorite kinds of people. Your emotions are intense. You see the best and worst in life. It can get hard though; the anxiety, rage, and sadness hurt. You get impulsive - say and do things you regret. You can be a hot mess. The emotional roller coaster is exhausting - you've been riding it all your life and want off. Familiar? The good news is it's gonna be ok. You're not "crazy". You don't have to live in misery. If you think you might have Borderline Personality Disorder, or are just a highly sensitive person, Dialectical Behavior Therapy can help.

Greetings. I'm Yulonda Ross and I specialize in Substance Use Disorders and I provide counseling for anger management as well. Are you struggling with trying to quit using alcohol and drugs? Has your relationship been affected by your substance use? Is all of your leisure time consumed with using? You’re probably full of emotions, questions, and doubts. You may be wondering what I do now; is there any hope; and is it even possible to get better? You may be feeling overwhelmed, scared, and stressed.

My hope is that through counseling you will identify your strengths, heal, and develop the tools you need to survive and thrive in this sometimes chaotic world. I provide a safe space for you to explore your feelings and seek solutions to the issue you are facing.
