Lisa Smith

My communication style

My therapy approach is client-centered and strength-based. My goal is to make a space for you to be authentic and fully yourself, with no judgment, no perfection, or performance. My commitment is to walk alongside you as you navigate your own path and goals towards healing and growth.

My journey to mental healthcare

I was drawn to helping and supporting children throughout my career. I had the opportunity to work with children and parents with an abuse and trauma background. It had also been important for me to give a voice to the voiceless or vulnerable population.

My goals for you

Together, we will identify and set goals that matter to you, and we will adapt as we go. Whether the goal is improving relationships, building self-esteem, or other personal objectives, we will work together. We will together make the best plan to provide you with the support and tools you need to continue healing and growth.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity to get to know each other. We will discuss what brings you to therapy and your background to get an idea of how we can work together. We will have time to ask and answer general questions, and we will continue to build our work together.
