Welcome my name is Kathy Smith Take a minute to acknowledge this step you are taking towards wellness. Beginning therapy can be both scary and empowering. I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment which clients can feel safe and comfortable to talk about personal and sometimes difficult issues and topics. I welcome the opportunity to be a part of making the chnages you desire.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Therapy can foster and support personal growth and development in emotional and mental health wellbeing. You can expect a warm and welcoming reception in the first and all sessions. If you are ready to begin, I am here to help.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My strength as a clinician is not only 30 years of experience but the warm, welcoming and safe environment I provide for clients to express themselves freely.
