Unapologetically means "without regret" and Dope means "the best" or "great"! Combining and embodying these words, you'll find that you're able to become the best version of yourself without regret about your past life experiences...with nothing holding you back!

For me, being Unapologetically Dope starts with my willingness to be (especially in the therapy room) an authentic and transparent version of myself. For me, transparency is being willing to share my story, and helping those who come to me not solely based off what I know from school, but based off of what I know from real life, what I've tried, what I've implemented, and what I know that works.

What I stand for

Faith
Hope
Love
Authenticity

Faith - It is through belief in something greater than ourselves that we can find healing.

In the art of Spiritually- Integrated healing, we take our cues from the Ultimate Healer. In this marriage of clinical skills and biblical principles, I am able to craft an atmosphere of safety, empowerment and healing. This echoes back to the work of Jesus, who in many ways, was the first trauma-informed therapist. In every healing encounter of Jesus recorded in the Bible, we see this culture created.

Hope - Rediscovering our vision for what life can be is the motivation that keeps us going.

Many times we come to therapy lost, directionless, unsure of the possibilities available to us, and especially unsure of our own capabilities. When at first it feels overwhelming, I’ll hold onto hope for you, and we’ll walk hand in hand throughout the entire healing process.

Love - Knowing and experiencing love for self and love for others is life’s ultimate pursuit.

Often on the path of life, we pick up false beliefs about ourselves as broken, unlovable, and fear being “found out” for the fraud we believe ourselves to be. Choosing to embody a love for self, in spite of our supposed flaws is the key to allowing us to create lasting and fulfilling relationships.

Authenticity - In willingness to be honest and embrace vulnerability we can let others in.

On this journey together, I am willing to join you in the pursuit of transparent and authentic living. As you trust me with your pain and hurt, you’ll find that you feel less overwhelmed, and healed through the power of being truly seen.

Being “Unapologetically Dope” is about not asking for permission to be yourself, not shrinking for others, and resting in your own sense of what makes you Dope!

Hi, I’m Corretta.

Let’s get to know each other.

Essentially, growing up, both of my parents were addicts. I didn't come from a healthy family.

In a lot of ways, this is what has been the driving force my whole life: creating a reality for myself that is opposite from how I grew up.

It's a drive for something that I didn't have, something I so desperately wanted, and something I will never stop striving towards.

Arkansas is where I was born and raised. It's where I said I would leave and never come back to, a place where I left a lot of heartache and pain. I said I never would, but I came home.

I have it on my heart that I might be uniquely equipped to be able to impact the community for the better. This community.

I think a lot about the life I’m creating for my family. The “inheritance package” or legacy that I will leave behind for my children and their children and so on. This is a lot of what gives me the passion to do what I do, not only as a mother, wife, daughter, but also as a therapist.

Being “Unapologetically Dope” is a continuous process.

It means making a decision each day to be the best version of yourself, no matter what!
