Our office will be closed on Monday, May 11, to honor the memory of Charles Weiner, a remarkable individual in the counseling community.

Dr. Weiner was a dedicated professor at Henderson State University who positively impacted countless lives through his passion for teaching and his genuine love for his students and people. His influence reached far beyond the classroom, and his legacy will continue to live on through the many lives he touched throughout the years.

Our staff will be attending funeral services to pay our respects and honor a life devoted to helping others.

Please keep his family, friends, former students, and all who loved him in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

⭐️Meet The Staff⭐️
Elizabeth Glass
Therapist– Taylor Ar

Elizabeth is proud to support local schools through Experience Counseling while also maintaining a private practice within her community.

She began her master’s program in August 2017, just three months after welcoming her first child and later welcomed her son in 2019. In December 2021, She graduated from Southern Arkansas University with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling after four years of balancing motherhood, graduate school, and working from home (an experience that deeply shaped both who she is and how she shows up for clients). She is deeply family-oriented, both personally and professionally, which strongly influences my work with children and their families. Her family is actively involved in our community, and you’ll often find them volunteering, coaching, and cheering from the sidelines at ballfields and events throughout the area.
Clinically, she takes an eclectic, integrative approach to therapy, drawing from multiple frameworks with a strong interest in neuroscience, somatic work, trauma-informed care, and support for anxiety and emotional regulation. She strives to meet each client where they are and tailor care to their unique needs. She truly loves this community and the schools within it. She stated “I feel honored to serve them both personally and through my work with Experience Counseling.”
