Entering into counseling is the beginning of discovery and change. It's an important decision that deserves careful consideration. I've observed that most people want freedom from suffering and to live authentic, satisfying lives. Yet they may feel overwhelmed by the challenges of contemporary society while coping with life transitions, grief, relationships, self-esteem and identity issues, trauma, and spiritual crises. Where does one begin? A therapist can be an important guide in navigating the inner world of emotions while also building more effective skills for living in a dynamic, ever-shifting world.

Often times life can get tough. It can affect you, your marriage/relationship, your family, your children, your ability to parent, your self-worth, and more than anything, your ability to overcome any obstacles you are facing. I believe within each of us we have the strength to overcome the impossible. Out of pain comes something stronger, better, and the ability to thrive. I believe you already have the answers you seek and you contain the ability to change the worst circumstances. Sometimes our paths are hidden by everything weighing us down, which can make us feel overwhelmed. This can prevent us from seeing a way out...

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.

With intention and caring, in a non-judgmental environment, I aim to help you explore the parts of yourself that are giving you unease and that may be intimidating to explore, or perhaps to find that hidden confidence inside to exalt your inner potential. We often carry many different identities within ourselves: parent, child, lover, friend…it can be hard to navigate and accept different roles we play.

It is no secret that mental distress can be a devastating roadblock in life. It is my hope that together, we can create a completely safe and understanding environment in which we can work together toward achieving balance, implementing healthy coping strategies, and navigating life’s many obstacles toward growth. Therapy can be quite a daunting step to take for many, but I have no doubt in my mind that together, we can lay the foundation for personal growth.

My goal is to work with you to help you reach your true potential. If you are ready to make changes in your life please give me a call. We'll get started right away!

I specialize in helping individuals soothe pain, anxiety, and stress as a residual from chronic illness or injury. Those diagnosed with chronic illness / chronic pain often have anxiety and depression surrounding their illness. This can contribute to sleepless nights, shameful feelings, self-blame, fear of social situations, isolation, and anger. Within our partnership we will create a new awareness and understanding of the impact your illness has had on your quality of life and how this has created your current internal narrative.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed? Maybe you're having relationship or family difficulties, struggling with the impact of trauma, or just having a rough time lately. Perhaps you're questioning your identity, having a hard time navigating societal/familial expectations, or figuring out who you are. It's hard to face ourselves, our lives & our experiences, but I believe it's even harder to continue to ignore or delay, our own desire for change. I'm here as we figure out how to help you cope, heal, and/or grow.
