Getting to know Gisheera Rardin

I am the founder of Arkansas Healing Space, where we provide compassionate, client-centered therapy to support healing, growth, and emotional well-being. Whether you're navigating anxiety, life transitions, or relationship challenges, we offer a safe and supportive environment to help you reconnect, reflect, and move forward with clarity and confidence. My approach My approach to treatment is trauma-informed, collaborative, and focused on helping you heal at your own pace. We primarily use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to address the impact of trauma, anxiety, and negative thought patterns. These evidence-based methods help you safely process difficult experiences, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and develop healthier ways of thinking and coping. You can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where your story is honored and your goals are central to the work we do together. My focus I specialize in working with individuals who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by past experiences. Our ideal clients are adults and young adults navigating trauma, anxiety, or self-doubt—often those who’ve tried to “push through” but are ready for deeper healing. Using EMDR, CBT, and CPT, we help you process painful memories, reframe negative thought patterns, and build the confidence to move forward. If you’re ready to break free from what’s holding you back, we’re here to support you every step of the way. My communication style I communicate with warmth, honesty, and compassion. You can expect a calm, supportive environment where you feel safe to be yourself—no judgment, no pressure. I’ll meet you where you are, gently challenge you when needed, and always hold space for your experiences with empathy and respect. My goal is to create a therapeutic relationship built on trust, safety, and genuine connection, so you feel empowered to explore, heal, and grow.
