I’ve witnessed the impact of stress, anxiety, and feelings of hopelessness as individuals manage their chronic health conditions. These are common reactions to navigating a life-altering health condition. I work with clients to better manage their mental health and chronic illness together to improve their overall health. I take a collaborative approach to therapy with my clients, and I strive to establish a supportive environment where we can discuss your goals for therapy and address the challenges associated with managing chronic illness.

As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW-C) in practice for nearly twenty years, I have had the opportunity and privilege to work collaboratively with clients to help them develop greater insight into their relationships, communication patterns, and limiting narratives. For more than a decade I have worked in private practice. Previously, I have had experience working in an intensive outpatient program (IOP), school setting, and community mental health agency. I have an undergraduate degree in Psychology from The University of Michigan and a Master of Social Work degree from the National Catholic School of Social Service.

Sometimes, just getting through the day can be very hard. There are so many roles that we play: Perhaps we are working, studying, parenting, teaching, coaching, not to mention shopping, cooking, maintaining a household, sharing life with someone and trying our best to do it all. Am I talking about you?

Throughout my career, I have worked to help people have better, more meaningful lives where they feel competent to address their problems and feel connected to others who care. And this is only made possible by my providing a therapeutic relationship which is warm and respectful. I am interested in understanding how people’s histories and styles affect how they get stuck and how they can change. I have had diversified training and experience. Hopefully, this allows for our finding the best approach for getting unstuck. Some issues I address are life transitions, loss, stress, depression, trauma, anxiety, and relationship conflict.

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.

I believe that psychotherapy is very useful in connecting deeply with oneself and subsequently with others. Anxiety and depression are often related to faulty coping mechanisms developed in childhood that lead to painful relationships. Being happy in work and love are the pillars of a rewarding and fulfilled life and therapy makes this possible.

Close and warm relationships are key to a successful family life, individual health, and to a happy life as a couple. I work collaboratively with families to improve communication between parent and child, deal with underlying emotions, and to address problems together. I help couples find their way back to the initial strong bond that brought them together. I assist parents in finding successful strategies to deal with emotional outbursts, school difficulties, and sibling conflicts. Together we address specific challenges that children face such as learning differences and mood swings. I specialize in working with adoption and multicultural families.
