I am the sole clinician at my new private practice, Dr Jennifer G Smith LLC. I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist who provides individual and group psychotherapy and have over 10 years of clinical experience providing mental health service to adults.

I am a transfeminine, queer, and neurodivergent therapist. I specialize in affirming therapy for people who hold neurodivergent, transgender, and queer identities.

You may feel that a more authentic version of yourself is out of reach. If so, you and I would likely be a good fit for therapy.
