Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Miami, FL

I have a passion for creating a collaborative, supportive environment for personal growth and healing. I believe that seeking therapy is a profound act of self-respect and care, and my goal is to provide a space where you feel truly heard and valued. Together, we can navigate the challenges of life, uncovering clarity and direction in the midst of complexity. My approach is rooted in fostering a comfortable, nonjudgmental atmosphere where your story can unfold, and your goals can take center stage.

I want you to know that when you come into therapy, I see you—not just a diagnosis, a list of symptoms, or the challenges that brought you here. You are a whole person with your own experiences, strengths, values, and story.

My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without fear of judgment or pressure to have everything figured out. You can be honest, ask questions, laugh, cry, vent, or simply take things one step at a time. Therapy is your space, and we will move at a pace that feels right for you.

I believe therapy works best as a partnership. We’ll work together to better understand what’s going on, identify what you want for your life, and create goals that feel realistic and meaningful to you—not just goals that look good on paper.

Most importantly, I believe that change is possible. It doesn’t have to happen overnight, and progress isn’t always a straight line. Even when things feel uncertain, overwhelming, or slow, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’ll be here to support, encourage, and challenge you when needed—while helping you recognize the strength and ability you already have within you to create meaningful change.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in the state of New York. My approach to therapy is warm, open-minded, collaborative, and supportive. Throughout that process, I use an integrative

approach utilizing DBT, CBT, strength-based therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I specialize in

couples’ therapy, and treatment resistant individual therapy.

I’m Karina Smith, LCSW, founder of Bloom Haven Therapeutic Services❀. I specialize in working with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and life transitions related to relationships, career shifts, and family dynamics. I also support individuals experiencing the lasting impact of trauma or feeling stuck in patterns that are difficult to break.

My work is grounded in EMDR, DBT-informed therapy, somatic approaches, CBT, and mindfulness-based practices. I’m also an advocate and serve on the PAIMI Council for Disability Rights Florida.

Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, addiction, or a major life change - you deserve support without judgment. My practice is a safe, compassionate space where you can finally say the things you've never said out loud. I've spent 20+ years walking alongside adults through their hardest seasons. As your sole therapist, I'll know your story deeply and show up consistently - with warmth, honesty, and genuine care.
