Hello, I'm so happy that you reached out for help. I am Dr. Sonia Smith, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R). I have worked with individuals, couples and families seeking counseling for over 20 years, both online and in my private practice

I want you to feel comfortable and understood from the very first conversation we have. My work centers on helping people manage anxiety, lift the weight of depression, and find steady footing in recovery from addiction. I see care as something we build together, not something done to you, so your voice shapes every step of the plan. Whether you are just starting to notice something feels off or you have carried a struggle for years, you deserve a partner who listens closely and treats your goals as the compass. I bring warmth, encouragement, and a genuine belief that change is possible, and I am glad you are here.

My expertise is in anxiety, life transitions, chronic stress and ADHD. I have been trained and train other professionals in CBT, DBT, Mindfulness and interpersonal psychotherapy. My aim is to help you make actual, measurable, behavior change. I will collaborate with you to stop avoiding the challenges in your life, without treating you like you need to be "fixed."

I believe therapy is a safe place in which we can be heard, supported, and understood. Together, we will work to uncover your strengths and find new ways to approach life's challenges.

Life can be complicated at times, and change can feel overwhelming—leaving you feeling stuck, frustrated, or discouraged. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to support and guide you as we work toward creating a more balanced, fulfilling life. Together, we will explore negative thoughts and behaviors to identify what may be holding you back. I believe the answers are already within you—together, we’ll work to uncover them and develop practical ways to help you move forward with greater clarity, purpose and confidence.
