Parents often contact us when their teen or young adult is struggling despite having every advantage. Anxiety, ADHD, low motivation, academic stress, social challenges, family conflict, or major life transitions can leave both parents and children feeling stuck. At Smith Psychotherapy Group, we help teens, young adults, and families gain clarity, strengthen relationships, build confidence, and develop practical strategies that create meaningful and lasting change.
With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in helping teens, young adults, and families navigate anxiety, ADHD, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions. Our team provides personalized, evidence-based care with the warmth, responsiveness, and attention expected from a concierge-style practice.
When someone you love is struggling, it’s hard to know what to do next. You don’t have to carry that burden alone. Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, we’re here to help. Reach out today to learn how we can help you move forward with confidence.

People are often not sure what to expect in the first session. I look at our first session as an opportunity for us to get to know each other and see if it's a good fit. I will be asking questions about what brings you into therapy and what goals you might have. I will also provide some information on what you can expect out of the therapy experience and make recommendations.
