Refuge Counseling of Arkansas was founded in 2018 by AdamMaisen, LPC-S, in Arkadelphia, AR, with a simple yet powerful mission, to provide a safe, welcoming environment for emotional healing and connection. After more than a decade
working in agency mental health settings, Adam envisioned a counseling practice that felt home-like, accessible, and deeply personal, created around whatclients truly need to feel seen and supported.
Every therapist at Refuge Counseling is hand-selected and trained in experiential therapy, a research-based approach focused on strengthening and repairing meaningful relationships. Our licensed clinicians share a unified passion for meeting people exactly where they are, offering empathy, insight, and a judgment-free space for growth.
In 2024, we expanded with a second location in Hot Springs, AR, allowing us to serve an even broader community while staying true to our founding mission of offering exceptional, individualized therapy for individuals, couples, and families.
With over 40 years of combined experience, our team has guided countless clients through some of life’s most difficult moments. We understand that life can feel uncertain and overwhelming, but we also know the transformative power of safe connection. At Refuge Counseling, we’re here to help you navigate the challenges and discover renewed hope, security, and strength.
