Being a therapist has consistently helped me find special compassion for those in need. I started my practice based on three core beliefs: growth, resilience, and empowerment. I believe that every person is worthy of success, happiness, and wellness. This often involves changing dysfunctional habits, reframing beliefs about the self and the world, and empowerment. All things are possible, but don't need to be accomplished alone!

Counseling is actually my 2nd career, doing I.T. Support was my 1st.

While working in that field, I told people that I did just as much counseling as I did I.T. work. Many people came to see me feeling anxious, angry, stressed, overwhelmed, or in grief because of technology issues.

I quickly learned that there were two issues going on:

· One was technical and the other was emotional.

· One needed repair and the other needed relief.

So, I addressed the person and their emotions first and then addressed their I.T. issues. I spent thousands of hours sitting with people, fixing their technology and giving space for their emotions and...I loved it!

I didn’t realize it then, but these were my first steps which would lead me into pursuing a career as a therapist. Now my work is in Emotional Support and instead of addressing hardware and software, I get to address brainware and heartware.

I'm Michelle Smith — LPC, MA in Professional Counseling, and your biggest advocate before you've even said a word.

Whether you're carrying old wounds, navigating a hard season, or searching for something that feels like hope — I'm here for all of it. You have immense value and purpose, and my job is to help you remember that.

As a therapist, I work with men, teens, and couples who are tired of carrying pain alone — the kind that doesn’t always show on the outside.
