David Smith, LMHC

David Smith, LMHC

Psychotherapist
IA
Hi there, I'm David! Hello - my name is Dave Smith, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Iowa. I work with individuals, couples, and families of all ages statewide via telehealth. My therapeutic approach is an eclectic mix of client-centered, strengths-based, and humanistic methods that uphold the dignity and worth of those I serve. My specialty areas include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, and Positive Psychology, but I am not afraid to utilize other methods that best suit the needs and goals of others. My approach I recognize the significance-and courage-of your decision to consider counseling. Together, we will seek out solutions that build upon your strengths. While my approach varies based on client needs, I generally describe myself as eclectic, emphasizing solution-focused, cognitive/behavioral, motivational, and family systems therapies. Most important is ensuring a positive and supportive working relationship between my clients and myself. I strive to balance encouragement for change with support to help you attain your identified goals. My focus I have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, anger management, and depression. Additional areas of expertise include substance abuse disorders, life transitions, identity issues, and life/career coaching. I am equally comfortable working with individuals, couples, and families. My communication style I would describe myself as accessible, empathetic, pragmatic, and action-oriented. I tend to be active and am not afraid to offer guidance and suggestions as appropriate. However, I believe you are the expert of your story and the "driver" of your therapy.
