My name is Bradley Smith, and I’m a therapist who believes that meaningful change begins with feeling understood. I work with individuals who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the everyday pressures that can make life feel overwhelming. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and heard without judgment.
I know that reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating, especially if you’re not sure where to start. I approach each client with curiosity, empathy, and respect for their unique experiences. Everyone’s story is different, and I believe therapy should reflect that. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels comfortable while focusing on what matters most to you.
I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with experience providing care in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings. My clinical background allows me to support adults across a wide range of mental health needs—from acute stabilization to ongoing outpatient treatment—while maintaining a thoughtful, individualized approach to care.
I received my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) degree from Texas State University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. I am known for my warm, approachable style and for taking the time to truly listen, as I believe effective mental health care begins with trust, collaboration, and feeling understood.
I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and life stressors. My approach emphasizes conservative medication management, clear patient education, and shared decision-making so individuals feel informed and confident in their care.
In addition to my psychiatric training, I have a background in women’s health, which enhances my understanding of how physical health and life-stage factors can influence mental well-being. This perspective allows me to provide well-rounded, inclusive care for all adults.
Whether you are seeking psychiatric care for the first time, transitioning from inpatient treatment, or looking for ongoing outpatient support, my goal is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you feel respected, heard, and empowered throughout your care.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a DNP (Doctor of Nursing Practice) degree from the University of Massachusetts Global. I have experience working with adolescents and adults in multiple settings facing various complex mental health issues, including OCD, depression, anxiety, ADHD and mood disorders.
Hi, I’m Elizabeth Gyang, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a Master of Science in Nursing. I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a supportive and judgment-free environment.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, eating disorders, mood disorders, and other mental health challenges. My approach is personalized, collaborative, and focused on helping each individual achieve emotional wellness and improved quality of life.
I believe every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to empower you and your family with the tools and guidance needed to navigate life's challenges and build lasting resilience.
I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing and wellness—one step at a time.
With nearly 30 years in education and over a decade of experience as a Certified Professional School Counselor (CSC), I bring a strong foundation in supporting children, adolescents, teens and families through a wide range of challenges. In addition to school counseling experience, I hold a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health.
A trauma-informed approach is at the heart of each session. Creating a space where clients feel safe, heard and genuinely supported is a top priority. Whether navigating stress, loss, grief, anxiety, life transitions, or school related concerns, sessions are tailored to need each person's unique needs.
I believe therapy should feel less like performing and more like finally being able to exhale. My approach is warm, collaborative, insight-oriented, and rooted in genuine human connection. I specialize in psychoanalytic and narrative therapy, helping clients explore the deeper patterns, relationships, experiences, and stories that shape how they move through the world. Together, we work to uncover the “why” beneath recurring emotions, behaviors, relationship dynamics, and internal conflicts while also rewriting narratives that no longer serve you.
Hi there! I am glad we have crossed paths, and am here to help you navigate through life's challenges. Maybe you're dealing with relationship issues, a life transition, self-esteem issues, grief & loss, or simply trying to find yourself. If you're feeling confused and overwhelmed with emotion, deciding to meet with a therapist can be the first step toward relief.
I have nearly 20 years of experience helping people find answers to the difficulties they face. I believe you are the expert as it relates to your symptoms and your life experiences. My role is to collaborate with you, offer guidance and insight, and work together with you toward your goals. Ultimately, I feel it is most important that there is a strong rapport between you and me, and that you feel comfortable in an easygoing, non-judgmental atmosphere. I would love to have the opportunity to help you tap into your strengths, and discover the personal peace and fulfillment we all want out of life. Let's Do This!
