Ms. Smith finds solutions to manu life problems dealing with past trama. She always want to look at each problem from different perspectives. Also, she doesn't believe in a victim victimizing themselves. She also rather a long term goals within plans to help move foward. She's also very selective and sensitive when deciding what or how to talk about certain tramas; as they can be very trigger based for me.
