My name is Hiawatha, but I prefer to be called "Frenchie". I am a mother, a daughter, a sister, a friend, and a proud grandmother. I enjoy all sports, but my favorites are basketball and tennis. I also love to mentor young ladies and be a positive role model for them. I have always been a great listener and love to try and help problem-solve. I believe in the power of positive thinking, and I also believe in being as supportive as I can be. I strongly encourage self-care as I definitely try to take time to re-energize myself often.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Arkansas rather than a city like Little Rock?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Arkansas from Fayetteville to Fort Smith! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Arkansas.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Grief?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Grief, is filtering therapists in Arkansas that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
