Joseph Smith

My communication style

My communication style is open and engaging. I create a welcoming and safe place to talk and to be heard.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist was long and convoluted, including other careers and raising children. Finally, in later life, I have arrived. This is my passion. I take great pride in being a trusted partner in my clients' journeys, and my goal is to make a meaningful and lasting impact on their lives.

My goals for you

From the outset of therapy, I help clients develop goals and a desired outcome for therapy. We continue to work collaboratively to modify and assess our progress throughout our time together.

Our first session

The main focus of our first session is developing comfort. I ask questions, and I encourage you to ask me questions. We start the process of getting to know each other and begin discovering how we might best approach the concerns that brought you into therapy.
