As more families in Conway, Arkansas turn to assisted living communities to support their aging loved ones, one name is making a meaningful difference in how seniors experience care: Marissa Wells.
With deep roots in Central Arkansas and a heart for serving aging families, Marissa offers something unique—professional counseling and mental health services brought directly to seniors where they live, with Medicare billing options available for those who qualify.
🧠 Why Mental Health Support Matters in Assisted Living
Life transitions, health changes, and isolation can take a toll on the emotional well-being of older adults. Many residents in assisted living struggle silently with grief, anxiety, depression, memory issues, or the emotional challenges of aging.
That’s where Marissa Wells steps in.
Marissa is a licensed mental health professional who specializes in helping older adults and their families navigate these complex experiences. Through therapeutic counseling, family guidance, and emotional support, she brings compassionate care right into assisted living facilities in Conway, Arkansas
🏡 Marissa Can Visit Conway Assisted Living Communities
Marissa is able to visit Conway assisted living communities, including:
StoneBridge Senior Living – A welcoming, 18-acre campus with 24-hour staff support and beautiful grounds.
Brookdale Conway – Located in a peaceful neighborhood, with robust life-enrichment programs.
College Square Retirement Community – A welcoming retirement community that integrates assisted living with vibrancy and engagement.

💵 Can Marissa Bill Medicare for These Services?
Yes! In many cases, Marissa can bill Medicare Part B for covered counseling and mental health services delivered to Conway assisted living communities. Here’s how it works:
Medically Necessary Counseling: If a resident is experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, grief, cognitive changes, or emotional distress, therapy is often covered under Medicare.
Physician Referral Not Always Required: Residents do not have to be “homebound” or hospitalized. If Medicare eligibility and clinical necessity are established, therapy can be billed under Part B as an outpatient service—even in an assisted living setting.
Minimal Cost to Residents: Medicare typically covers 80% of the cost after deductible, and secondary insurance often covers the rest.
Marissa ensures all documentation, treatment plans, and coordination with primary care providers are handled appropriately so that residents and families have peace of mind.
