Hi, I'm Kenzie! One of the bravest things people can do is to reach out for some help, especially in our child, adolescent and young adult years. Growing up can come with all sorts of pressure, confusion, and judgement, leading to anxiety and other strong emotions. Anxiety may cause us to struggle with communication, lash out in anger, act on impulses, get lost in our feelings, avoid tasks, distract us from success, and disconnect us from support systems.

You may appear high-functioning and put-together on the outside, yet inside you feel weighed down by an eating disorder, history of trauma, or anxiety. You might struggle with perfectionism, shame, or feeling disconnected from your own needs and emotions. What you want is to feel safer in your body, less ruled by rigid rules or anxious thoughts, and more aligned with your values. Your goals may include building self-trust, developing healthier coping strategies, and creating lasting change that allows you to move from survival toward a fuller, more meaningful life.

Seeking professional psychological help can be a complicated undertaking. Some people seek help when in the throes of a crisis, others after a long time trying to fix something that is not right in their life. Family conflict, life transitions, relationship problems, anxieties and depression are some of the reasons people contact me for help. When people seek my assistance I try to understand all the factors (personal, family, work) that are impacting their life. This includes present circumstances and historical influences. In an evaluation I work with people to develop the best plan of treatment for their current situation.

Years of research indicate the biggest predictor of therapeutic success is the relationship developed between the therapist and client. As the Director of the Smith Counseling Group, I have assembled a practice of therapists who don't "sit back and nod" but provide warm, direct and evidence-based mental health care. Our philosophy is that you should leave every session with the feeling that you are making progress with your personal goals.

Do you find yourself repeating the same disappointing relationship patterns, despite your insight and efforts to change them? Many successful people understand themselves well and make sound decisions in most areas of life, yet still find themselves caught in unsatisfying relational dynamics. These patterns often reflect ways of responding and protecting oneself that developed earlier in life and continue to shape experience in subtle but persistent ways. As you understand your contribution to these patterns, you can make more intentional choices to improve your relationships, and by extension, your life.

One thing is certain in life: things always change. All of us encounter difficult changes, narrow passages that we must navigate: unemployment, relocation, breakups, divorce, illness, bereavement. We also experience good, positive changes. Ironically, these too can be quite stressful. Falling in love, getting married, childbirth, getting a promotion at work, any major accomplishment can precipitate uneasiness and worry. It can be tremendously helpful to have the attention, support and perspective of a thoughtful therapist. Together, we collaborate to get you through these challenges while, at the same time, being curious about the deeper meanings underneath the surface.
