Dr. Janissa Jackson
Owner & Director
Dr. Janissa Jackson received her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in 2005 from the University of Arkansas after completing specialty training in the evaluation and treatment of children and adolescents with Arkansas Children’s Hospital and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Furthermore, she received additional training in the assessment and treatment of developmental concerns including autism spectrum disorders. Dr. Jackson began her practice in 2005 and has been practicing in Fort Smith since 2011. She has greatly enjoyed being a part of the professional community of the River Valley area.
Dr. Jackson has specialized in treatment as well as psychological evaluations over her years in private practice but has recently limited her practice to primarily doing testing. This decision came as a result of the great need for these types of evaluations and the long waiting lists that patients often have to endure. Diagnosis is often needed to open doors in helping patients of all ages meet their highest potential. However, she has become passionate about providing additional options for those who struggle with cognitive processing and effective learning. That is what led her to pursue opening an educational franchise. Dr. Jackson has been married for twenty-four years to her husband Justin and has two children. The family resides on a cattle ranch and she enjoys being outdoors and spending time with her family’s animals as well as reading and making homemade soap.
