The only journey is the one within.” — Rainer Maria Rilke Welcome! My name is Amy Afua Smith and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I exemplify authenticity and compassion throughout my daily life. Over my career as a licensed clinical social worker, I have dedicated myself to providing excellence in care to those in need, especially those from low income or underserved communities. I assist with problem-solving and managing challenges related to work-life balance.
I fight tirelessly to reach those who have been left behind or ignored because of socio-economic issues. My passion is ignited by the knowledge that my skills and collaborative nature can achieve successful outcomes in an otherwise bleak situation. Sometimes our breakdowns can be our breakthrough.
I enjoy giving back to my community through a variety of volunteer experiences, most notably with W.O.K.E. (Women of Kolour Empowered). This organization was honorably featured in the June 2019 issue of O Magazine. Link to W.O.K.E meetup-http://meetu.ps/c/3JGmQ/yV03b/a You can also find me on: helloalma.com or headway.co/providers/3474 to book a session.
