Barrett Smith

My clients describe me as:

The values that are essential to me as a therapist are compassion, empathy, creativity, commitment, and impactful.

Something to know about my approach is:

I adapt my work to meet your unique needs, values, & goals to help you heal and build your meaningful & fulfilling life. Acceptance & Commitment Therapy is my primary orientation, & I supplement it with other models & techniques as needed.

Together, we will:

Travel the road that's necessary for you to become the person you best imagine. We'll explore points of pain & trauma & work towards healing. We'll focus on who you most want to be & the next right steps to live into that life.

I specialize in working with people who:

are honest about the realities of their life - both the beautiful and ugly bits - and are committed to creative and challenging steps to build something more fulfilling and life-giving.

I became a therapist because:

I believe in the possibility of better - for individuals, society, and mother earth, and I want to be a part of nurturing that into existence.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

It's cozy, warm, personable, and adaptable. We'll experiment to find the approach that works best for who you are right now and where you want to be.

More about me and my practice:

Good therapy isn't only helping individuals heal and improve their lives. It's also about the creation of a world in which fewer people experience the harms tha drive them into therapy. Liberative, holistic change for the individual and society.
