Everyone has the ability to have joy and happiness, we just need to learn how! I help my clients by taking a positive approach to their lives. I understand the stressors and depression that daily life and trauma has on each individual, as well as their family. It is my goal to find a way out out of this circle and create a meaningful life. I have been working with people while utilizing a positive approach for the past 15 years in order to bring meaning to each person as well as peace within a family. I specialize in working with individuals and families to create positive relationships. In addition, I have been working with veterans and their families for the past 5 yrs in dealing with unique challenges of deployment, reunion and PTSD's role in changing family dynamics. I hope to help each individual find their unique way of creating the life that they envision!

Dr. Heather Smith
I'm a clinical psychologist licensed in Ohio with seven years of experience providing psychotherapy for a wide range of concerns. My experience includes working with individuals who have concerns with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, personality disorders, histories of trauma, PTSD, and interpersonal difficulties. I identify primarily with a cognitive behavioral approach, but incorporate skills from a variety of therapeutic orientations. Treatment can sometimes feel robotic, and I want to make sure that my clients are able to experience the opposite. People deserve a compassionate and caring therapist who meets them where they are. I believe that clients are the experts on their own experiences and I work to empower them so that they can create the changes they want to see in their lives. Taking the first step or trying again with therapy is incredibly difficult. Choosing a therapist that will be the best for your needs can also be hard. I am happy to discuss your expectations and desires for treatment and help you navigate more easily through this time. I look forward to working with you!

Welcome, and congratulations on taking an important first step in finding the assistance that you need. Just as each client is unique, therapists are also varied in their personalities and styles of helping. It will be important for you to take care in finding a therapist who is a good fit for you. Your comfort in communicating and confidence in the person with whom you take this journey will be key contributors to your progress. In your first meeting, or perhaps first few meetings, you will have a chance to sense if a good working relationship is likely to develop. You should always feel free to ask questions about the care you are receiving. Remember that you and your therapist have a shared responsibility to work toward a healthier you. I wish you the best in moving forward with the therapist you select. Let me offer you a brief description of my background, should that help you in making your decision. Successfully meeting the mental health needs of clients for over twenty-five years has rested in the breadth of my experiences. As a military veteran, former high school teacher, and a psychologist in various settings, I have come to appreciate the broad range of challenges that life can bring to many of us. It has been my privilege to see the world through the eyes of those who are struggling with all types of emotional and interpersonal distress, and to guide people past their discouragement to a more productive and positive self-understanding, one that supports concrete steps toward self-selected goals of better health. While my therapeutic approach varies with the particular difficulties and personality of each individual, several themes are nearly always present: • deep steady attention to the client’s perceptions, beliefs, and feelings • collaborative working relationship that contributes to a better understanding of the source a presenting concern, identification of one’s internal resources that would support change, setting of goals spaced in achievable steps, and the articulation of specific strategies to create that movement • identification of one’s current habits of thinking along with inaccurate beliefs about oneself and others that may support the reported difficulties with mood, interpersonal comfort, job performance, and family relations • skill development that focuses on barriers to progress, be that the promotion of more rationally based thinking habits, strategies targeting specific interpersonal or communication difficulties

Curtis Harris
Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, Certified Sex Therapist, ADHD Assessment and Treatment Practitioner When I decided to pursue a career as a therapist, I did so because I wanted to make the world a better place, and the best way for me to do that was by helping one person at a time. My primary approach to mental health counseling is the person-centered approach. This means I believe that no one knows you better than you know yourself, and it is my job to help you identify goals, improve communication, strengthen self-esteem, make good decisions, and develop coping skills. I also dive into Radical Acceptance, Transactional Transactional Analysis, and the traditional version of DISC theory, During the counseling process, you’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m GPS to help you on the road to better mental health. It’s my job to help you deal with your issues in a safe, non-judgmental, and affirming environment, regardless if that environment is in person or via telehealth. I have a wealth of experience working with clients who have issues with anxiety, depression, adult ADHD, sex therapy, and victims of narcissistic abuse (sometimes called Narcissistic Abuse Syndrome). I am a Certified ADHD Assessment and Treatment Practitioner. I work with adults of all ages, from 18 to 80’s and beyond. ADHD accounts for 30-50% of all mental health referrals. Not only do I have professional experience with ADHD but I have a lifetime of personal experience. I am an AASECT (American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists) Certified Sex Therapist. I am a firm believer that if you can learn to communicate your wants and needs to your partner about that thing we’re “not supposed to talk about” (sex), then talking about whose turn it is to take out the trash suddenly becomes easy. But sex therapy isn’t just intimacy and sexual issues; it includes helping people with sexual/romantic orientation, gender identity, victims of sexual assault/abuse, and more. Sex therapy also includes working with members of diverse communities, even when their issues aren’t directly related to sex. These communities include Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Queer, Transgender, Asexual, Aromantic, Kinky, BDSM practitioner, Ethically Non-Monogomous, Polyamorous, Swinger, Sex Worker, Leather, Furry, Age Player, Pet Player, or any related identity, and others in “non-traditional” relationships.
