Getting to know Tyson Smith

I am Tyson Smith, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in CA, UT, and ID. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from California State University, Fullerton. I utilize action-oriented approaches that include strategies focusing on acceptance, mindfulness, commitment, and behavioral change. My hope is that my clients will learn to be free enough to make their lives more meaningful and whole. One of my specialties is working with couples. My approach depends on the needs of my clients. I use a range of CBT-based techniques, Gottman-based couples therapy, and psychodynamic approaches. I work with a wide variety of individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds who often struggle with relationship dynamics, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. It’s important to me to build a safe therapeutic relationship with you. My approach is inclusive and accepting. If you would like to take a meaningful, healthy direction in your life, I am willing to share my knowledge and compassion to help you achieve your goals. I am drawn to therapy by a desire to help, learn, and grow. Therapy can be an impactful and meaningful experience, and it is my goal to continue growing as I practice. I collaborate with clients to establish goals that make sense and will positively impact their lives. In our first session, you can expect to ask questions about me and therapy, review your history and the issues you want to address, and establish how therapy will proceed. You will also have the chance to see if we are a good fit.
