Getting to know Kristen Smith

Adulting is hard. Stress sucks. Anxiety and Depression seem to be passengers in the trip through life. The plague, Covid, has made these even more amplified....and being asked to go back into the office?! Seriously?! Have you ever felt like an outsider? Like, there can be a group of people talking and you are not part of the conversation. Are you part of the Neurodiverse/neurospicy community? Do you align with the LGBTQIA? Do you ever go to parties and hang out with the Cat? Dog? Well, then we might get along. I understand how challenging seeking help can be. As a compassionate therapist, I'm here to support you. Please don't hesitate to reach out. Let's walk this journey together.

What should a new client know about working with you?

The intake is the first session. Asking all the questions you never knew you'd be answering. Remaining sessions will be focused on what is going on with you in your life. I will typically ask how the week was, if there is anything important that came up and needs to be focused on. If there isn't anything of substance we can focus on things that you are coming to session for. I use solution-focused therapy as my primary mode. As well as strength based. I want you to know you're stong. You can do hard things.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
