Getting to know Dorothy Smith

Therapy is not about achieving perfection but about growing, healing and finding peace in the process. Using a person-centered approach and unconditional positive regard I strive to provide a safe, non-judgemental space for clients to share and process emotions to promote healing and growth. I work alongside clients to help them discover their inner strength, deepen their self-awareness, and unlock their potential to live an authentic, meaningful life. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor and a Licensed Addiction Counselor. I enjoy working with individuals and couples. I specialize in working with trauma, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, addiction, relationships and life transitions.
