Struggling with anxiety and depression? Maybe it's anger and communication issues! Come with me on a journey to dive into these challenges and find resolve. My name is Ray Smith, a travel multi-Licensed Clinical Social Worker (home state of MD), also recognized by the National Association of Social Workers as a Qualified Clinical Social Worker. Since I was a child, I've always had compassion for others around me. As to be expected, this has naturally driven me to the helping profession, where I strive to help individuals live through their struggles, seeking to experience life to their fullest potential.
My treatment approach is tailored to your specific needs that will be sure to leave you with skills that will help you with any daily challenges. My primary treatment modality is CBT, but also a mix of others. The ultimate goal is to provide you with the strength you need to become self-sufficient with circumstances in your life that cause you undue stress.
Please feel free to contact me to speak about your needs and what you hope to gain in this therapeutic experience. I provide a very open and caring environment allowing my clients to fully be themselves. It is important that you know I am only credentialed with insurance companies in the MD area at the present time, but does not preclude private pay client
