About Guinn Clinic

The Guinn Clinic is an outpatient psychiatric and mental health practice in El Dorado, Arkansas, that includes addiction care among their services. They provide medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder on an outpatient basis, along with psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and counseling. Their providers treat patients of all ages and address a range of concerns, including anxiety, PTSD, depression, and substance use. The practice is led by Candance Guinn, a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner, and Andy Guinn, a family nurse practitioner, with a licensed professional counselor on the team.

For opioid addiction, their providers hold special certification to prescribe Suboxone, letting patients work toward sobriety with medication support while continuing to live at home. Counseling draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people recognize and change unhelpful thought patterns, and they also offer guidance on intuitive eating for those working on their relationship with food. The clinic is also a certified Spravato treatment center, using esketamine nasal spray for treatment-resistant depression, which may matter to someone dealing with depression alongside substance use. They accept several major insurance plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Aetna, and Ambetter, although federal BCBS plans through New Directions are not accepted.
