With almost 20 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have had the privilege of working across a variety of community service settings, including Geropsych, Hospice, Inpatient Psychiatry and Domestic Violence programs. As part of the military community (retired civilian and dependent), I also understand the challenges that can bring, as well. I accept both private pay and most major insurances. As a Behavioral Therapist, I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) but also integrate Mindfulness, Strengths-Based, and Solution-Focused approaches. My therapeutic style is centered around the person—their strengths, ideas, their unique gifts and goals—empowering clients to create positive change through their own choices and boundary setting.

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.

I am a straight-forward but empathic therapist, who also appreciates the same from her clients. I also believe in the social work mission of starting where the client is, so sessions are based upon that analogy. I have experience in many areas, including hospital, foster care, group homes, forensics, Veterans, home health, etc. I received my Masters of Social Science Administration from Case Western Reserve Univerity, and my Doctorate of Psychology from California Southern University. Although I have a doctorate degree, my scope of practice does not fall under psychological testing, pharmacological practices, nor community services. I only do individual therapy so if you need case management (such as letters), family/couples therapy, psychologicial testing, or medication, please refer to those licensed or practicing in those areas of expertise.

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 Arkansas. 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 Military/Veterans?

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, Military/Veterans, 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 happens during the first therapy 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.
