ABOUT CREATE HEALING COUNSELING SERVICES

Stasia L. Myers, LCSW, RPT-S, ICST

We all face challenges in life at one time or another. Are you facing challenges in your personal life, career, or relationships? Are you a parent seeking help for your child? If so, I can provide professional guidance and support, in a warm and confidential setting.

I provide individual and family therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. I provide support for individuals who are seeking stress management skills to improve their overall well-being and physical health.

I am an RPT-S (Registered Play Therapist Supervisor), which designates that I have training in approaches that fit the developmental needs of your child. I am also an ICST (Internationally Credentialed Sandtray Therapist), which is a form of play therapy that I utilize with all ages where appropriate. Play therapy and Sand tray therapy utilize sensory approaches that help people of all ages access their emotions naturally.

I am the president and founder of Create Healing Counseling Services PLLC and have been in private practice for over 15 years.  I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years.  I have experience with inpatient and outpatient levels of care. I have trained new therapists as an instructor with the MSW program, and I have taught graduate social work students at UALR. I provide supervision for therapists seeking licensure and play therapy certification and I am on the board of the Arkansas Play Therapy Association. I am a PhD candidate in the University of Louisiana Monroe’s Marriage and Family Systemic Studies program.

Thunderstorms and rainbows- neither of them ever stop coming. Are you currently struggling to weather the storms or feel as though the rainbows are few and far between? I would love to help you see, find, and/or create something good from all the ugly. I’ll be your biggest fan, and back you up all the way while being my direct, empathetic, and authentic self.

I have extensive experience with adolescents and adults. It’s a real passion of mine to help teens and parents navigate through what can be a very challenging time- adolescence. I thrive when working with adults going through difficult transitions, stage-of-life issues, or struggling to keep up with the ever-changing world which evolves at a much faster pace than our brains do these days. 

I have worked in the mental health field for over 15 years now at multiple levels of care and have been in private practice for almost 6 years. I am certified as a Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (NATC), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression and Anxiety (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing for trauma (EMDR) and trained in a harm reduction approach for substance use problems. I have also worked with the MSW program to help train new therapists and currently provide supervision for those working toward licensure.

I know for many of us getting the whole therapy thing started can be daunting. If you’re looking for an experienced, down-to-earth therapist and reading this, then you’re likely ready. You can be in my office with one simple call, text, or email. My goal is to help you achieve your goals and work towards becoming a better and better version of yourself (a lifelong pursuit for all of us.) Life can get better. I am here to help and am honored to do so.

Does your child experience high anxiety? Are you tired of tantrum meltdowns? Do you worry about your child being successful at school? Are you feeling overwhelmed by watching your child struggle with anxiety, grief, social rejection, anger, or big emotions? Navigating parenthood can be hard and I am here to help support you and your family.

I have 20 years of mental health experience in various settings working with children, adolescents, and families. I love working with families and kids of all ages. I am a child therapist specializing in assisting children and their families in being able to process and heal through traumatic or difficult situations. My child-friendly office provides a safe environment for your child to process their feelings and work through any difficulties they may be experiencing. Your child will grow to have greater self-esteem and self-confidence by learning new strategies and skills for handling life’s challenges.

I believe children are resilient and their main source of communication is through play. Play is the “language” in which children communicate in a non-threatening way. Just as adults “talk” it out, children play. I integrate a range of playful techniques including play, art, mindfulness, and sand tray. I am an Internationally Credentialed Sandtray Therapist, an Infant Mental Health and EMDR-trained therapist. I am certified in Child Parent Psychotherapy, Advanced Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with trauma-related problematic sexualized behaviors. I am training to become a Registered Play Therapist. 

If you have a child struggling and believe they could benefit from therapy, please reach out. Working together, we can empower your child to be a resilient, compassionate, and confident individual ready to conquer any challenge that may come their way. Your child deserves the best care possible, and it will be an honor to take this journey with your family.
