Hey Hey Hey! My name is Maliya Smith and I am a master’s level licensed mental health clinician with over 7 years of experience. However, I have been intuitively counseling and working as a healer my whole life. I have worked with various populations in multiple settings from working as a domestic violence counselor, with college, high school and middle school aged students, with families, couples and toddlers.
I counsel from a holistic perspective, therefore when working with my clients we will look at their experience through a multidimensional framework. This process will allow you to understand your layers of generational and childhood trauma, maladaptive behaviors, beliefs and repressed emotions; while being able to analyze how this all plays in your life.
I use person centered, psychoanalytic, interpersonal, somatic based interventions, and DBT. I am also a certified Kemetic yoga instructor, therefore I incorporate deep breathing, meditation, mindfulness and movement to help heal subconscious multigenerational wombs. My goal is to empower you to be your own healer, I am just a tool to help you see it :)
