Marlo Floyd, LPC

Marlo Floyd is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Arkansas with 23 years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, addiction, grief, parenting challenges, and family of origin issues.

She describes a practical, talk-based approach that mixes client-centered listening with cognitive and mindfulness tools. Sessions focus on learning life skills, changing unhelpful habits, and spotting different ways of thinking that reduce anxiety and lift self-esteem. She also notes a spiritual or Christian perspective is part of her practice and will respectfully work with each person’s source of inspiration.

In session she uses techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness practices. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is listed among her tools for addressing difficult memories. The work aims to ease symptoms such as anger, mood instability, and substance use by developing coping strategies and improving communication patterns.

Marlo helps people examine how early family roles and expectations still affect current relationships and choices. That family of origin focus looks at patterns of control, attachment, codependency, and communication problems that repeat across generations. She also addresses blended family issues, fatherhood concerns, caregiver stress, and forgiveness as needed.

Practical goals include reducing anxiety and depressive symptoms, improving self-confidence, and learning skills for healthier interaction. Her style is straightforward and often includes mindfulness exercises, brief skills coaching, and conversational reflection. Sessions are in English and provided from Arkansas.
