Years of research indicate the biggest predictor of therapeutic success is the relationship developed between the therapist and client. As the Director of the Smith Counseling Group, I have assembled a practice of therapists who don't "sit back and nod" but provide warm, direct and evidence-based mental health care. Our philosophy is that you should leave every session with the feeling that you are making progress with your personal goals.
We are a collective of professionals who are dedicated to providing evidence-based mental health care to individuals and their families. With over 30 years of experience in the field, our approach is warm, direct, and based in science, with a focus on results. Our specialty field is eating disorders, where we offer individual and family based treatment.
Please call The Smith Counseling Group for a consultation. Our office is in Friendship Heights, walking distance to the metro. We also offer virtual visits to those individuals in states in which we are licensed. We are accessible to AU and GWU and have office hours early in the mornings and in the afternoon/evening.
