Getting to know David Smith

Hi there, I'm David! Hello, my name is David Smith, and I am an LCSW with a Master’s in Social Work from Western Kentucky University. I have a passion for helping people dealing with life stressors, depression, and anxiety. I also enjoy working in the Christian counseling field and helping people find their happiness and meaning in life. My approach I use CBT and solution-focused therapy in my interventions with clients. I recognize that sometimes people need help solving problems in their lives and learning how to cope with life stressors. My focus I enjoy working with people who are suffering from depression, anxiety, and stressors in their lives. I also find great satisfaction in helping people adjust to life events and spiritual issues. My communication style I have a very calm, sensitive tone toward my clients because I believe therapy should be a place where people can come without judgment and seek help from a third party who is there to support them and provide quality care. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist because I have seen how therapy can improve people’s lives for both short- and long-term success, and I simply want to be a small part of helping in that journey. My goals for you I use a client-centered approach and work with clients to create reasonable goals that are attainable. My first session with you Clients should expect a calming atmosphere and an interview-style process that allows me to gather information so I can help them create and reach their goals.
