Shaneika Smith

Dr. Shaneika Smith is the co-founder and lead therapist of Sweetgrass Counseling & Consultation. She specializes in restoring relationships, including the relationship with your spouse, your children, your extended family, the world, your community, and, most importantly, yourself. This restorative work is facilitated through individual, couples, family, and group therapy.

I utilize Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Narration Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy to assist clients in navigating their journey. This restorative work is facilitated in individual, couple, family, and group therapy. Your progress is monitored during each session through inventories and processing to ensure that you are meeting your goals. Homework is given to encourage reflection and skill-building in between our sessions.

On your counseling journey, I aim to serve as a support in weaving together the vision for your life. I am compatible with motivated clients who desire to interrupt emotional/cognitive patterns that are not serving you. I believe that you have intuitive tools that may not be accessible due to the "guarded relating" that so many of us have adopted to protect ourselves; allow me to assist you in unearthing tools that identify your barriers and create sustainable change.
