Silvia Fernandez
MS, MFT, LPC-S
Hi, I'm Silvia Fernandez, a Licensed Professional Counselor by the Arkansas Board of Counseling Examiners. I hold a Master of Science (MS) degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with an emphasis in Community Counseling from John Brown University. The graduate program I completed is accredited to meet the standards of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT). My formal education has prepared me to work with individuals, marriages, families, and groups.
I am bilingual in Spanish and English, and I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and a minor in Psychology from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
Aside from my professional education, I have been married for 37 years, am a mother of three adult children, and a grandmother to five grandchildren. My hobbies include reading, gardening, and spending time with my family.
As a Latina, I understand the complexity of our identity. I'm here to support you.
