About me

Hi. I am Anna Smyth. I am dually licensed in Marriage and Family Therapy and Substance Abuse Counseling. I also have special certifications to work with any one who is taking medication to treat their substance abuse issues. I am a Recovery Coach and Certified Dual Diagnosis Clinician. I work with clients with any type of mental health issues and coordinate care with primary care physicians and psychiatrists when appropriate. Whatever your illness is or issue is, we can identify the diagnosis or problem and devise a plan and time frame to work within. I am available for phone sessions in addition to text sessions.

I also specialize in chemical dependency of any kind. Drugs and alcohol steal souls and if you are looking to find another way, I can help. If you are a family member dealing with an addict, it's heart wrenching. I am here to help you work through it.

I had a back ground in managed care working with insurance companies but found my heart was not in it... I became a therapist to help people, so I left the corporate world and started my own private practice. I am grateful and lucky to be able to help people. I enjoy marriage therapy and couples work. All relationships (even friendships) are work at one time or another. Allow me to be there for you in your difficult times. Communication is the key to any relationship.

I have been married for 28 years and clean and sober 30 years. My husband and I have raised two children a boy and girl who are active and enjoying their adult lives.

My website is Annasmyth.com if you'd like to learn more about me.

Wishing you wellness.
Anna

Anna, is a totally supportive therapist and goes out of her way to initiate and maintain contact with me. Her broad experience has helped me in more than just transitioning and also assisted me in relationship matters. I would love to have her as therapist for for my entire journey and whilst that is not possible, I can reflect on the positive impact and contribution she has made in my life and am grateful to have met up with her.

I’ve only had two meetings with Anna. Though I find her engaging and responsive, I would prefer to give a review after two more meetings.

Although I haven’t spent long talking to Anna, she has helped me so much and has been so kind. She has a very straightforward no-nonsense approach which has been exactly what I needed.
