Anna Slatton, LPC
Philosophy of Care
Are you, your child, or your family struggling with anxiety, depression, stress management, or trauma? I have a passion for working with individuals (children and adults), families, and couples. My job is to assist you in helping you look at things differently. Focusing on a shift in perspective allows for needed changes in feelings, thoughts, and behaviors to fall into place. I have been a practicing therapist for 10 years. My aim is to assist individuals, families, and/or couples in creating a better quality of life. So, if a better quality of life is what you are seeking, I want to walk with you on that journey.
I enjoy studying behavior analysis and learning concepts and conditioning. During my collegiate career, I participated in my college's study of Oddity Concepts in Learning. I graduated cum laude with my master's degree in counseling in 2009 from UALR.
Beginning a new mental health journey is not easy, but it is worth the effort. I value the vulnerability that it took to begin this journey. I see you. I hear you. Let's take this journey together. Therapy is not an overnight fix. There is not magic wand. It won't always be easy. But, it will be worth it. Are you ready?

Arthur completed his master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Southern Arkansas University.

He believes that all the dimensions are interconnected and important to a well-rounded and balanced lifestyle. Arthur incorporates elements of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused therapy into his practice. He believes that he can help facilitate the process of positive life changes and growth. Arthur enjoys helping people find their path on life’s journey, working through obstacles along the way.
