Trish Smith

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with 10+ years of experience and as a Certified EMDR Therapist, I have worked at a number of clinical settings addressing a variety of issues related to PTSD, anxiety, depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Substance Use Disorder. Additionally, I have significant experience working with adults impacted by brain injury and other chronic medical conditions, domestic violence, sexual violence, sex trafficking, disability, and LGBTQ+-related issues. My education includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from James Madison University and a Master of Science in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from Virginia Commonwealth University.

I am a Certified EMDR Therapist through the EMDR International Association and work with adults (18+) in creating a space that promotes a sense of trust and safety as a means of supporting the brain with navigating various stuck points to reach a more grounded and empowered version of self. Other modalities I incorporate into my therapeutic approach include trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Relational-Cultural Therapy.

My clinical style is warm, non-judgmental, curious and compassionate, and I truly love the work I do. If you’re ready to start your journey toward healing, growth, and/or change, I’m here to walk beside you every step of the way. Reach out today to take that first step.

Together I hope we will be able to cultivate a space that is rooted in curiosity and is goal-driven to support the various parts of you in reflecting the best version of self.
