Becoming a licensed clinical social worker has always been a career goal. Growing up, I constantly advocated for vulnerable populations and had a deep understanding of people’s emotions. As the oldest child and daughter, understanding family dynamics, worldviews, and individual experiences came naturally. In my career, I’ve provided psychotherapy to court-ordered parents working to reunite with their children, teens in a school setting as a behavioral health therapist, and millennial individuals as a primary therapist. As a first-generation college graduate, an entrepreneur, and a businesswoman, I also understand the challenges that come with starting something from scratch and learning as you go. Sometimes, you need to speak with a relatable yet unbiased party to process your thoughts and feelings about everyday stressors that you may not feel comfortable sharing openly. I use evidence-based practices and unconventional interventions to reach clients where they are.

Dianna Smith

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


I've been doing this work for 25 years — which means I've sat with a lot of people in a lot of different kinds of pain, and I've watched most of them find their way through it. I work with adolescents, adults, and families dealing with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ+ identity, cultural identity, and the messy overlaps between all of those things. I'm warm, direct, and probably a little funnier than you'd expect from a therapist. That's intentional. Some of the hardest healing I've witnessed happened in moments that also had some lightness in them. I'm LGBTQ+ affirming, work with couples and families in addition to individuals, and I accept Aetna, Carelon Behavioral Health, and Cigna through Headway — plus several additional insurers on Psychology Today.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Chelmsford

Finding therapists in Chelmsford starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or stress. As you compare Chelmsford therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy style match what you want to work on. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.

In a smaller community like Chelmsford, local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual therapy can expand your search across Massachusetts while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to see you. When comparing therapists in Chelmsford, MA, consider availability, whether they are accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how a therapist communicates, what concerns they often support, and what to expect from sessions.

Therapy in Chelmsford can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, confirm coverage for your specific plan and location, and show estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can review profiles, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
