Sydney Smith, CSW Intern

I particularly want to work with those struggling with anxiety, grief, OCD, and any pre- or post-natal mental health problems. Mental health is an integral part of each individual’s life and progression, and sometimes it can be difficult to understand. I am a firm believer that each person has the capability of rising above whatever struggles they face, and coming out a better and stronger person than before. Life isn’t easy, and each phase presents its own hurdles to be tackled. Some of those hurdles might be your own anxiety, depression, or relationship struggles.

With a client-centered approach, I ensure that your goals are of the utmost importance. I utilize evidence-based treatments including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, among others. My goal is to be a valuable resource for anyone looking to have a better understanding of themselves.

I understand how difficult it can be working through mental health struggles, but you don’t have to work through it on your own. From my personal experience, it is easier when you have more tools at your disposal to not get lost at sea. I would love to be both an anchor to help steady you and a compass to help guide you on your journey.
