I work with people across the lifespan to help them explore patterns, gain deeper understanding into their lives and move towards desired changes. I specialize in using play and art therapy to work with children and adolescents who are encountering emotional challenges at home, school and with identity formation. I also have a strong interest in working with adults seeking support with life transitions, parenting, relationships, anxiety and grief. I practice with a trauma focused lens where I recognize the way past trauma can manifest both emotionally and physically. I welcome using art therapy interventions with adults as desired.

Dr. Smith is a licensed clinical psychologist who enjoys working with adults of all ages who present with a range of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, major life transitions, loss/ grief, histories of acute or complex trauma, or low self-esteem. She is concerned with understanding the whole person with whom she is sitting, and not only one's symptoms. This stems from a belief that psychotherapy is useful not only for reducing suffering; it is also a dynamic process from which a deeper sense of self, increased confidence, and meaningful life changes can emerge.

I have over 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist, art therapist, mental health advocate, and educator. My approach to therapy is fuelled by compassion and curiosity, but is equally rooted in Relational-cultural Theory, Internal Family Systems, and Narrative Therapy – three perspectives which blend well with holistic wellbeing and deep healing. I work in a trauma- informed, healing-centered way and am sensitive to one’s intersectional identity. I draw on embodied approaches to wellbeing and work to support self-compassion, self-regulation, and to foster resilience in those I am privileged to accompany along their journeys.

I specialize in working with people feeling challenged by relationships, work, parenting (from pregnancy through empty nest), and aging, as well as people struggling with trauma, grief, and loss. I start from the position that past experiences and attachments have profound effects on our everyday lives, and our abilities to move forward. I have an interest in working with those who navigate multiple cultures and communities (through, for example, racial identity, class background, immigration, religion, gender, and sexuality), as well as those who work in education, healthcare, nonprofit, and creative fields.

Searching for a therapist can be one of the most difficult parts of coping, healing, and self-empowerment, because it's the first thing you must do. You must force yourself out of your comfort zone and out of whatever routine you've had before, to take the initiative and embark on a new path. When we're at our best, stepping out of our comfort zones can be daunting; when we're feeling vulnerable, it can seem nearly impossible. No matter what prompted you to take this first step, I'd like to be there for your second.

There's a delicate balance between accepting oneself as you are and making the changes you deeply desire. Cultivating quiet and stillness allows you to listen to your inner knowing and the answers you are seeking. My own spiritual practice informs me as I honor and support your personal journey. What's most essential for healing is the relationship between client and therapist. Clients have described their experience with me as open, deeply caring, respectful, irreverent, collaborative, both gentle and direct, grounding and real.

Often we have so many judgments and intense feelings about food and our bodies that it can be difficult to see clearly. I offer support, guidance, and clarity. In addition to being a therapist I have 20 years of experience as an eating disorder dietitian.

My goal is to foster an atmosphere of comfort and safety, so we can explore your inner landscape with kindness and curiosity, so you can live with more ease, choice and joy.

"Your present circumstances do not determine where you go, they merely determine where you start." Feelings of loss, shame, sadness and anxiety often keep us stuck in unhealthy patterns. I have a general practice focusing on the treatment of depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse and impulse control disorders. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and other coping strategies I guide clients forward, to health, wellness, safety and acceptance.

I support individuals and couples in understanding negative patterns of relating and developing more adaptive coping strategies to manage life's stressors. Clients describe me as warm but direct, and I strive to create an environment that allows for levity, humor, and playfulness as we work together to make sense of your problems and overcome them. I work hard with my clients, and I enjoy engaging with clients who show up ready to work. I welcome clients of all genders and sexual orientations. As a queer person, it feels especially meaningful when I can support LGBTQ+ clients.

I have enjoyed working as a psychotherapist for 30+ years. I am a family systems oriented, psychodynamic clinician with a wide range of treatment approaches. I treat families and individuals experiencing transitions, loss and trauma, as well as depression, anxiety, behavioral or relationship problems. When I work with youth, parental involvement is requested. Treatment can be fluid to include siblings, parent/child and individual therapy. With all clients, the goals of acceptance, healing and growth occur within a positive and safe environment. I believe that feeling worthwhile and having hope are key elements to mental health.

My clients are typically between the ages of 18-35, navigating college or the beginning of their professional career. They often experience immense pressure around expectations they have set for themselves, or someone else has set for them. They may experience anxiety or depression and are eager to explore coping skills and treatment options. They are interested in identifying the ways in which their relationships, responsibilities, family culture and current life stage plays a role in how they function in the world around them.

Are you, your teen or young adult child struggling? Withdrawing? Anxious? Making dangerous choices? Having trouble getting along? For over twenty years I have been helping people work through their situations to think more clearly, make better choices, and ultimately, to feel better about themselves. Because trust and good communication between the therapist and the client is so important, I invite you to email or call me and talk about what you are looking for and my approach to see if this might be a good fit for you or your child.

You do so much for others, always there to provide care, comfort and a shoulder to lean on. You are a partner, mother, daughter, sister, friend to everyone….and you have completely lost yourself. Once, you had goals, dreams and a firm sense of who you were. But now, the pressures of day to day life are leaving you depressed, anxious and uncertain. Things are changing all around you but you feel stuck, wanting to feel happy and fulfilled but not sure if that's even possible. You wonder if you will ever feel good enough. The one thing you know is you feel drained, disconnected and aren't sure how your life ended up this way.

I believe that we all get stuck sometimes. We find ourselves in difficult situations and we don’t know what to do. Other times we feel trapped by our painful pasts. At times, we aren’t sure what the problem is, but we sense there must be more to life. Whatever the reason that brings you to therapy, we can work together to uncover and resolve what’s happening, clarify what matters most and help you to feel stronger and freer to live more fully.
