Hi, I am Kaitlin Smith, a registered marriage and family therapy intern. I believe that mental health is for everyone and that every person has the strengths they need to create meaningful change. I also believe that connection and therapeutic alliance are some of the most important aspects of therapy and endeavor to create a safe space for genuine connection.

My therapy is grounded in Solution-Focused therapy, but I understand there is not a one-size-fits-all approach for therapy. I integrate and apply interventions and techniques from multiple modalities as needed, including Narrative Therapy, Art Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT); most importantly, I utilize and help to draw on your own strengths. 

I have experience working with children, teens, families, and adults facing the many challenges of life. I engage with both individuals and families navigating transitions in life, exploring identity, and managing their mental health. While I have years of experience, I am always researching and learning new ways to better connect and create change in the therapy room.
