Getting to know Cheryl Comfort

Welcome! I'm a licensed professional counselor in Arkansas and Texas. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and phase of life issues. My goal is to support you on your healing journey to improved mental health and developing confidence to become your own "therapist". My focus My experience includes working with clients, ages 13-99, struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar, BPD, trauma, and sexual addiction. My goal for clients is to help them learn appropriate coping skills to manage feelings, cognitive restructuring to help them control their thoughts, and improve self-care and self-confidence. My approach I am primarily a cognitive behavioral therapist. I also utilize techniques from dialectical behavior therapy, particularly in addressing anxiety, depression, bipolar, BPD, and trauma. I am certified in trauma-focused cognitive behavior therapy and Accelerated Resolution Therapy for trauma-focused therapy. I also utilize Motivational Interviewing. My communication style I am kind but direct in communication. I provide clients a safe, non-judgmental space to discuss their struggles, and create a collaborative environment to help clients learn the skills needed to be confident in themselves to manage and/or overcome their struggles. My journey to mental healthcare I received my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from John Brown University in Arkansas in 2018. I received my LAC in 2019, and worked in residential for six and half years, earning my LPC in 2022. I have been in private practice since April of 2022, starting on a part-time basis and transitioning to full-time in December 2025. My goals for you I encourage clients to set goals for treatment, and utilize techniques and homework tailored to each client's needs to help them achieve their goals. My approach is to listen, reflect, and encourage clients to take ownership of their healing journey, while acting as a support and coach along the way.
