Getting to know Carrie Smith

My style of therapy is to meet my clients where they are and provide Solution-Focused treatment to support learning how to manage your emotional self outside of therapy. I have worked as a therapist since 2014 with adults, families, and couples so I have a wide range of experience providing individual therapy to a diverse population. I am skilled in focusing on emotion regulation, shifting negative and intrusive thinking patterns to improve how a person navigates stress. It is also essential for me to support people through some of their most challenging times in life and for many, therapy provides just that! I am a therapist at Octave, a behavioral health practice creating a new standard for mental health care that’s both high-quality and accessible.
