My name is Krista Smith and I have been in the mental health field since 2018. I started out in Residential care - working with teens who struggle with severe mental health challenges. I specialize using DBT as I have seen first hand, its effectiveness. I love its practicality and teaching aspect of coping skills. I have always had a passion of helping those who (at the moment) can't help themselves. It is amazing to see people gain confidence and ability to create their life worth living.
I use the first session as information gathering - a way to gain understanding of what the presenting problems are impacting clients' day to day wellbeing. I give brief expectations of therapy and how DBT can help clients reach their goals.
Since working in Residential care, I have experience with significant mental health challenges. I know what works and what doesn't. I am not in the business of wasting anyone's time and my ultimate goal is getting client's back to 100% (or close to).
