Hello, I am Dr. Clark.
Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Have you experienced significant traumatic experiences both in childhood and adulthood whose residuals continue to haunt you? Do you struggle with low self-esteem, chronic nightmares, memory loss, medical or health issues, or feel stuck in a rut? Have you had a near-death experience and need to talk about it?

We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I also integrate mindfulness, coping skills, and art to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or just need to process relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!

Jennifer Harelson

LPC

My name is Jennifer Harelson and I graduated from Louisiana State University and became licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2004. I have experience working in psychiatric hospitals, behavioral intervention programs and on school and college campuses. I love working with children and young adults, helping them and their families to manage and understand some of the difficult disabilities they may be striving to overcome. I use play therapy as an important therapeutic tool for young children, as they are often able to engage and process their emotions and situations in a more beneficial way through play. Many behavioral and emotional issues are related to depression and anxiety, as well as many problems people have functioning daily. Working together on ways to decrease these symptoms, such as clients providing better self care skills, building strong coping skills and having improved perspectives is essential to a healthier well being. My role as your therapist is that through the supportive and close therapeutic relationship, you will gain insight and motivation to work toward change.

I’ve had the honor of serving people from all walks of life in my career since 2005, which first began as I initiated and operated a non-profit program for juveniles in my small town. It was funded by grants and donations, and I learned a lot about rural communities, human services, referral sources, and limited resources. I gained a passion for helping others and decided to pursue my degree to continue to help others. After receiving my Master’s degree in 2011, I began offering therapy to those in my community, always keeping in mind the heart of collaboration as well as working to help people make real change in their lives.
I have learned some tremendous things about the necessity for validation, which is a theme that resonates in my work. Your thoughts and feelings matter. Taking the time to explore and validate them is a part of the healing journey and I am honored to be here with you during this time.

Meaningful change can take place once we are able to acknowledge that change is needed. In my profession as a therapist, my goal is to help others achieve change, growth, and improved mental health in their lives.
It was during my own therapeutic experience many years ago where I learned the value of the journey to change and mental wellness. I would later decide to become an agent of change for others when I obtained my master’s in social work.
My passion is working with women to help them effectively manage their mental health. As a woman I understand the challenges with having several roles and the expectation of being perfect in each role. I assist my clients by empowering them to take their own journey of self-discovery that leads to learning, growing, and thriving.
My approach to the therapeutic process is person centered and focused as I believe clients are the experts of their own lives. My goal is to offer the support needed to facilitate the change and growth my clients seek.

You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated.- Dr. Maya Angelou.
Sometimes we need someone to walk with us through the hardships of life where anxiety, fear, anger, etc. have taken root and made their home.
We need a place to vent and figure out how to re-train our brain- where anxiety, past traumas, etc. do not lead us anymore, but healthy thoughts, healthy ways of life, and building healthy behaviors do. Life is about growth and change, and about learning how to put away some pieces where they do not have a hold on us like they once have.
True compassion means not only feeling another's pain but also being moved to help relieve it.- Daniel Goleman. Whatever you bring into therapy- pain, trauma, or the need for daily life maintenance - I am here to walk with you through it. I meet you where you are in life, and I provide integrated therapy specific to your needs.
I work with a variety of individuals facing many different challenges. I provide a safe, judgment free space for people to open up about their struggles, pain, and to celebrate their triumphs as they work through things they need to sort out.
