If you've ever found yourself wondering why you're so good at helping everyone else while struggling to understand yourself, you're in the right place.
Sometimes the goal isn't figuring out what's wrong with you. It's understanding how you got here.
Hey there, I’m Becca Ferguson 👋🏼 I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor, owner of The Therapy Office, late-diagnosed ADHDer, cat mom, and someone whose brain basically looks like one of those crime boards from CSI.
When I’m listening to your experiences, I pull out the case files, polaroids, red string, sticky notes, and the random pieces of evidence that don’t seem connected. Then one day as we’re talking, you zoom out, step back and everything in your head goes, “Ohhhhhhh”...
That’s kind of what therapy feels like in my office.
Even though they might not believe some days, the women I work with are incredibly capable! They’re helpers, therapists, teachers, healthcare workers, business owners, moms and leaders in our community. As helpers, we're often great at understanding other people. The hard part is giving ourselves permission to be curious about our own experiences.
It’s my goal to provide the space and ask the questions that the environment you grew up in didn’t allow you to explore. Whether it was a family system where everyone’s emotions revolved around one person, a church environment where certainty was valued more than curiosity, or a political group that sold you on fear over conversation.
Many of us learned early on that being helpful, agreeable, and easy to manage felt safer than being curious. We learned how to read the room, anticipate needs, take care of everyone else, and survive.
My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), person-centered therapy, and a healthy amount of curiosity. Every session gives us another piece of information to put on the crime scene board so we can connect the dots and make sense of the burnout, people-pleasing, anxiety, ADHD, relationship patterns, and self-doubt. Once we understand how you got here, it becomes a whole lot easier to figure out where you want to go next.
Let’s make sense of the story you’ve never been given permission to fully explore.
✔ You're ready to understand the "why" behind your patterns, not just manage the symptoms.
✔ You're willing to be curious about yourself, even when the answers are uncomfortable.
✔ You want therapy to be a conversation, not a place where someone tells you what to do.
✔ You're looking for insight, perspective, and support while you figure out what fits your life and values.
Because eventually your anxiety is going to ask if I actually know what I'm doing 🤣
Education & Licensure
🎓 Bachelor of Arts in Radio/TV/Video & Strategic Communication
🎓 Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling
✔ Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arkansas
Experience
When I started out as a therapist, I worked in crisis intervention, inpatient behavioral health, community re-entry services, and private practice settings. I also served as a volunteer Crisis Counselor with Crisis Text Line.
In 2022, I opened The Therapy Office as my solo practice. It has evolved into a space for therapists and wellness professionals to sublet offices where they can start, grow, or maintain their own businesses. This model gave me the opportunity to create Authentic Coaching, where I support therapists through resources, trainings, and real-world guidance.
As a business owner who has navigated burnout throughout many phases of my career and life, I've learned firsthand that burnout does not happen in a vacuum. Sometimes we're talking about family dynamics and people-pleasing. Other times we're talking about compassion fatigue, imposter syndrome, ethical dilemmas, leadership challenges, or the pressure of being the person everyone else depends on.
My work has been heavily influenced by training and continuing education in:
✔ Trauma & PTSD
✔ Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
✔ Religious Trauma & Spiritual Abuse
✔ Shame & Self-Compassion
✔ ADHD & Neurodivergence
✔ Suicide Assessment & Crisis Intervention

If you're a Millennial woman who has ever found yourself wondering:
✔️ Why does this feel so hard for me?
✔️ Why do I keep ending up in the same patterns?
✔️ Why am I so good at helping everyone else but struggling to help myself?
✔️ How did I get here?
...we might have some things to talk about.I tend to work best with women who are curious about themselves, interested in understanding patterns, and ready to actively engage in the therapy process. Many of the women I work with are navigating burnout, ADHD, people-pleasing, religious trauma, identity shifts, family dynamics, and learning to trust themselves again.
My practice is currently focused on adult women and I do not work with children, teens, or men.
-
Yep! I currently accept Blue Cross Blue Shield and also offer self-pay options. If you have a different insurance plan, you're still welcome to fill out the interest form. If I'm not currently accepting clients through your network, I'll do my best to point you in the right direction.
-
Absolutely! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arkansas and can provide both in-person sessions in Springdale and telehealth appointments throughout Arkansas via Simple Practice. So whether you prefer therapy from my comfy swivel rocking chairs or your couch at home, we've got options!
-
I do, and I love it! Therapists spend so much time helping other people make sense of their lives that they often struggle to give themselves the same space. You don't have to have all the answers just because you're the one who usually asks the questions.
-
Absolutely. Religious Trauma means something different for everyone. I’m accepting of all backgrounds and faiths. Many of the women I work with are navigating religious trauma from the Christian faith, purity culture, spiritual abuse, or the complicated process of figuring out what they actually believe now. My approach is flexible and based in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. It’s my goal to capture all the experiences that surround the trauma and understand how it’s affecting your day to day life. Questioning old beliefs can feel terrifying, lonely, and freeing all at the same time. You're not alone in this space, and I’m honored to explore your identity with you!
-
Oh yeah! As a late-diagnosed ADHDer myself, I understand both the relief and frustration that can come with finally having language for experiences you've been carrying for years. That doesn't mean your ADHD will look exactly like mine, but it does mean you won't have to spend half the session convincing me your brain works differently. I'm happy to chase the rabbit holes with you, but I'm also pretty good at helping us find our way back.
-
I love to ask questions, use metaphors, get curious about your experiences, connect the dots, and give you tools that might work! I’m a pro at active listening and I love to write down what you’re saying so I can track it as we go. Occasionally I'll connect three seemingly unrelated stories you've told me over the last six months and you'll stare at me for a second before saying, "Well, shit. That explains a lot."
-
Not usually, and honestly, that wouldn't be very ethical! I like to think of it this way: I have this 10,000 foot view when you’re telling me what’s going on and you have a 6 foot view. My perspective is pretty damn good. I’ll point out some observations, help you understand your values, life, and the person you want to be. What you do with those observations is totally up to you!
-
I'd be more surprised if you weren't. Finding a therapist that you mesh with can be a chore! On top of that, starting therapy can feel awkward, vulnerable, exciting, terrifying, and hopeful all at the same time! Just fill out the interest form with as much info as you can so I can make sure that we’re the best fit for each other. Once you fill it out, I’ll review it within 2 business days and get back to you!
If you've spent this entire page nodding your head, laughing, feeling slightly called out, or wondering how the hell I got inside your brain, there's a decent chance we'd work well together.
Fill out the interest form, tell me a little bit about what's going on, and I'll take it from there.
