Misty Smith, MS LPC CAADC CCS MITS

My clients describe me as:

Straight to the point, conversational, friendly and compassionate

Something to know about my approach is:

I believe our thoughts and thinking patterns dictate behavior and I help clients identify dysfunctional thinking processes and develop emotional regulation. I'm not the stereotypical "lay on my couch and tell me how you feel" therapist.

Together, we will:

Explore the root cause of your issue and look for solutions and tools for management. We will talk about your issues and work together to create proactive solutions and coping skills instead of just putting a Band-Aid on the problem.

I specialize in working with people who:

Suffer from anxiety, depression or general life stressors. I work extensively with LGBTQIA+

I became a therapist because:

Of my drive and passion for helping others coupled with a curiosity of human behavior and emotion

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I make it cozy and comfortable. Most days you will see my dog hanging out with me.

More about me and my practice:

I've been a therapist for many years and have a wide range of experiences. I absolutely love what I do and enjoy the challenge.
