Getting to know Shelina Smith

I provide a supportive, direct, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore what’s keeping them stuck and learn how to respond to life with more clarity and confidence. Much of my work focuses on relationships, anxiety, emotional regulation, and major life transitions. I help clients understand their thoughts and emotional patterns without shaming them for having those experiences in the first place. My approach isn’t about “fixing” you...it’s about helping you better understand yourself, build healthier habits, and feel more grounded in your choices. I value honesty, warmth, and collaboration in therapy. You’re the expert on your life; my role is to help you connect the dots, challenge patterns that no longer serve you, and develop tools that actually work in real life.

In-network insurances

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.
