What Arkansas Counseling and Psychodiagnostics does

Arkansas Counseling and Psychodiagnostics (ACaP) is a private, for-profit behavioral health provider headquartered in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, with a secondary office in Murfreesboro. The company delivers two integrated service lines: Counseling Services (individual therapy, group therapy, school-based counseling, career counseling, employee assistance programs, and court/legal referrals) and Psychological Services (intelligence testing, achievement testing, personality evaluation, mental status evaluations, law enforcement evaluations, relaxation and desensitization, court/legal assessments, and behavior intervention planning). Services are delivered face-to-face by Licensed Mental Health Professionals, Qualified Behavioral Health Providers, and Licensed Psychologists in homes, schools, hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, group homes, shelters, and ACaP offices across the State of Arkansas. The company serves adults and children with mental disorders or conditions and maintains a 30-plus-year operating history collaborating with Arkansas courts and legal systems.

The company's proprietary clinical assets include a culturally competent testing battery selected to produce valid results across diverse populations, same-day Mental Status Evaluations, and 24/7 emergency behavioral health coverage via an after-hours line. Referral channels dominate customer acquisition: individuals, families, schools, courts, law enforcement, physicians, and corporate Employee Assistance Program clients. Ten named public school districts account for the bulk of disclosed institutional relationships (Arkansas School for Mathematics, Sciences, and the Arts; Ashdown; Centerpoint; DeQueen; Hope; Horatio; Lake Hamilton; South Pike County; Sparkman; Spring Hill), with additional institutional buyers across nursing homes, hospitals, and shelters.

ACaP's revenue model is fee-for-service paid through Medicaid, most private insurers, and Arkansas PASSE providers, supplemented by a sliding fee scale for uninsured individuals based on income. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and operates on a per-session billing cadence. The company has no disclosed funding rounds, parent organization, acquisitions, or subsidiaries, and is led by CEO Janice Smithpeters (BSN RN) and Clinical Director Roselle Roberson (LPCS). There is no app, no public API, and no AI/ML capability referenced in operational or product material.
