✨ PROVIDER SPOTLIGHT: MEET SCOTTY SPURLIN, MNSc, APRN, PMHNP-BC! "It feels different to work with someone who personally understands stigma, identity, & minority stress. That shared understanding makes one feel more genuinely supported."

💚 Why I Chose This Work!
With 15 years in nursing, mental health allows me to combine science, critical thinking, & genuine human connection in a way that truly change lives.

💚 My Approach to Care
You should have a voice in you care! We will work together to explore options & build a plan that fits your needs. You should feel involved & supported in all decisions.

💚 Creating a Safe Space!
I approach care with curiosity rather than assumptions. My goal is for you to feel respected, understood, & supported in all areas of affirming care.

💚 Who I’m Passionate About Serving!
My goal is to help you feel seen, heard, & supported! I enjoy working with individuals who have felt invalidated in other healthcare settings. I’m passionate about marginalized communities, including those who identify as LGBTQ+.

💚 Why Journey!
I joined Journey Wellness Clinic because its values align closely with my own — client-centered, inclusive, & evidence-based care delivered by a supportive team committed to our community.

💚 PROVIDER SPOTLIGHT: MEET ANERI DESAI, DNP, APRN, PMHNP-BC!

✨ Where culture, compassion, and clinical excellence meet.

💚 Why Psychiatric Mental Health?
Psychiatric nursing resonates deeply with me. Growing up in Indian culture, mental health was often unspoken or stigmatized. That experience fueled my passion to break stigma, normalize care, and help people intentionally prioritize their emotional wellness.

💚 What Makes My Approach Different
I practice integrative, whole-person psychiatry. I don’t just focus on symptom relief — I look at lifestyle, medical contributors, prevention, and long-term wellness. I believe patients should feel informed, empowered, and actively involved in their treatment decisions.

💚 Culturally Responsive Care
Having grown up in India and navigated multiple cultural environments, I understand how identity, family expectations, and generational influences shape mental health.

💚 Why I Chose Journey
I trained at Journey and experienced the clinic’s strong ethical standards, collaboration, and patient-centered culture firsthand. I chose Journey because I value working in a setting where mentorship, integrity, and thoughtful care truly matter.

💚 What Patients Can Expect From Me
Calm. Approachable. Thorough.
I take time to look deeper — whether that means identifying vitamin deficiencies, sleep disorders, thyroid concerns, or other medical factors impacting mental health. My goal is comprehensive, compassionate care that supports the whole person.

💚 Let’s Start Your Journey!!
Mental wellness deserves thoughtful, comprehensive care.

I see patients in Conway and by telehealth throughout Arkansas. I invite you to schedule an appointment today.

We are a woman-owned, multidisciplinary clinic offering both medication management and therapy. Strong provider-patient relationships aren’t optional—they’re essential.
