Getting to know Dennis Smith
Dennis is a certified trauma professional (PESI), serving clients online within the great State of Texas as an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). He holds a Master's degree in Counseling from Northwestern University. Mr. Dennis Patrick Smith's greatest passion is helping others with unresolved trauma, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD); supporting those struggling with the underlying causes of addictions; and assisting you and yours with relationship issues. Dennis began his EMDR training and experience in 2018 under Dr. Robbie Adler-Tapia, with some brief advanced EMDR supervision by the late Dr. Francine Shapiro in 2019, and has continued EMDR training with other leaders in the field from 2018 to the present day.
Many of y'all would agree that it is often not easy to go to a counselor. A counseling session with Dennis usually begins with him asking you to be honest about three things that you are the expert of: your thoughts, your feelings, and your behavior. Dennis collaborates with you while being nonjudgmental, to avoid wasting your time and hard-earned money. Many of his clients have reported in their own words, ?You get so real!? Counseling is too serious to be anything less.
Many clients have said it best, and if y'all ask, we will provide a growing list of reviews from clients who are happy to have found and hired him to serve them. His goals include meeting you right where you are by listening until you feel consistently heard; helping you help yourself get better-not just using a band-aid effect to make you feel better; and working collaboratively toward where you want your counseling goals to reach.
