About Herschel
Dr. Herschel Pollard helps people facing stress, anger, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, addictions, grief, and life changes. He has worked in clinical settings for many decades and brings a steady, experienced presence to conversations about difficult feelings.
Dr. Pollard practices in Arkansas and conducts sessions in English. He treats each person as an individual rather than using a fixed method for everyone.
He listens first to understand a person's concerns and priorities.
Background and approach
Then he adapts his approach as issues shift and new goals appear. His work combines client-centered care with psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused techniques. That means he pays attention to present problems, patterns from the past, and practical steps that can lead to change.
Sessions often mix open conversation with focused problem-solving. People come to him for a wide range of issues, including parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and LGBT issues. He also addresses less obvious stressors like abandonment, midlife crisis, or coping after disaster.
With 58 years of experience and the credential AR Psychologist 08-07P, he aims to help people find clearer choices and workable steps forward. Therapy is described as a process where understanding grows into action, and Dr. Pollard adjusts methods as needs evolve.

Online approaches that focus on understanding and action
Client-centered therapy puts your experience at the center of each session. The therapist listens without judgment, follows your concerns, and helps you find your own solutions to problems like stress, anger, and relationship strain.Psychodynamic therapy looks at patterns that may come from past experiences and affect today’s behavior. It can help when recurring reactions, such as anger or attachment issues, keep showing up in life and relationships.
Solution-focused therapy zooms in on practical steps you can try right away. It is useful for people who want short-term, goal-oriented work to manage symptoms or make specific changes.
Deciding which approach to try is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend a mix of methods. That plan can be adjusted as you make progress or your priorities shift.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful for a fuller conversation, phone helps when video is not possible, live chat and text let you check in quickly or write things out. These options aim to make ongoing work more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
