Hey there! 🌟 Meet Sarah Albert, MS, LPC — your go-to therapist for navigating life’s twists and turns with grace & hope.

✨ Why Sarah?
• She’s passionate about change and believes there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing you realize just how strong and capable you are. 
• Using a friendly, solution-focused approach rooted in evidence-based methods (think Cognitive Behavioral Therapy + personal strengths), she helps you build on what already works. 
• Sarah works with teens and adults on issues like depression, anxiety, adjustment challenges, and relationship/family stress — so whether you’re feeling a little “off,” dealing with big transitions, or trying to find your footing, she’s got your back. 

🌿 What you get
• A warm, empathetic space to talk — online or in person (she has an office in Fayetteville, among others) 
• Flexible options for individuals, teens 12+, and families
• An empowering, strength-centered approach — kind of like having a personal coach for your mind and feelings

👉 Thinking about making a change, even if it’s scary or feels small? Reach out — Sarah is ready to walk with you.

🎄✨ The busy holiday season is nearly HERE — and wow, can we feel it. Between wrapping up the year, supporting clients, juggling family gatherings, and trying to remember where we hid the gift receipts… it’s a lot.

At ACWS, we just want to gently remind you:
You’re allowed to slow down. You’re allowed to breathe. You’re allowed to take care of you.

Whether that looks like stepping outside for a mindful minute, saying “no” to something that drains you, or getting support when things feel heavy — we’re here. Our team is ready to walk with you through the stress, the sweetness, and all the messy moments in between.

Wishing you peace, presence, and pockets of calm as the season kicks off. 💛

🍂 November reminds us to slow down a little.

As we move into a season that can hold both joy and heaviness, we want to remind you that it’s okay to:
• Set boundaries with family
• Say no when you need rest
• Grieve and celebrate at the same time
• Ask for help

Your emotional world is valid. You do not have to carry everything alone.

Our team at Arkansas Counseling & Wellness Services is here to support you—online or in person.

💜 October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Every year, Domestic Violence Awareness Month reminds us that safety, dignity, and respect are basic human rights — and that healing begins when we listen, believe, and stand with survivors.

Domestic violence affects people of all backgrounds — regardless of age, gender, race, or income. It often goes unseen, hidden behind closed doors or masked by fear and shame. But awareness saves lives. By talking about it, learning the signs, and supporting survivors, we create a culture where abuse cannot thrive.

At Arkansas Counseling and Wellness Services, we are committed to helping individuals and families break cycles of harm and rebuild lives rooted in safety and empowerment. Our counselors provide compassionate, trauma-informed care for both survivors and those seeking to change harmful patterns of behavior.

You can make a difference by:
💜 Listening without judgment
💜 Believing survivors when they share their stories
💜 Sharing local and national resources
💜 Wearing purple this month to show support

If you or someone you know needs help, reach out. You are not alone.

National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233)
Arkansas Crisis Center: 1-888-274-7472

Together, we can raise awareness, restore hope, and promote healing.
