My name is Naomi Smith. I am a licensed master social worker with 23 years of experience in working in mental health and also providing therapeutic services to
Individuals. My primary focus as a clinician is helping my clients meet their needs and build their confidence.
As a therapist, I have the skill to compassionately listen, be non-judgmental, and at all times provide support, encouragement and empowerment. My approach to therapy is simple: “Restoring peace, one day at a time, one piece at a time.” My commitment to my clients is to be open and honest in all my communication and to help each client reach their personal goals. The process of change is a heart issue and that change can only come from within.
I believe every client has a purpose to fulfill and the ability to realize that purpose in their present life. This is why I enthusiastically use Person-Centered Planning with clients. In order to be successful, a client must be willing, dedicated, and committed to accomplishing their individual plan.
My commitment as a therapist is to help guide, impart, and facilitate that change process. The integrity of my character and words are of the highest standard. My communication is honest and open. I am excited and privileged to be a part of your journey to change, success, and a future that looks much brighter. I look forward to working with you!

Naomi has been a blessing from start. She really provides a space of no judgment and a safe environment for one to share and be open. She has always allowed me to say or express myself as much as I needed and to disclose as much I was ready/felt comfortable with. She has been gifted. She is truly caring and compassionate. I am thankful that the Lord chose her to be my therapist.
