She also draws on client-centered ideas to make space for each person’s experience and pace. For trauma-related work she uses trauma-focused techniques tailored to the person’s needs.

She works with common issues such as communication problems, family of origin wounds, guilt and shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose. She also supports people dealing with post-traumatic stress and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder concerns in the context of individual care.

Sessions are offered from Georgia and are conducted in English. Dr. Smith aims to help people build more self-compassion and clearer patterns for handling conflict and strong emotions.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Dr. Smith commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try concrete behavior changes. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, low mood, anger, and everyday relationship stress.

She also employs trauma-focused therapy when past events are affecting daily life. This approach focuses on processing traumatic memories and building skills to reduce their impact on current functioning. In addition, she applies client-centered principles to ensure each person feels heard and that sessions move at a comfortable pace.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. She will work with clients to clarify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan over time. The therapist and client decide together what feels most helpful and practical.

Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video lets people keep visual connection for deeper conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, chat is useful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep continuity across changes in schedule or location.
