About
Greetings, I'm Anita Smith! If this is your first time seeking help, I would like to commend you for your courage, and if you have had therapy before, I hope I say something that connects with you. I'm curious to know what brought you here and what you would like to get out of therapy. I specialize in helping individuals cope with the different kinds of losses: 1) Primary losses - the death of a loved one, friend, or pet, break-up, separation, divorce, loss of job, loss of money, the victim of a crime, and losses due to COVID-19. 2)Secondary losses - moving, illness, changes, and success 3) Limbo losses - Covid-19, waiting for the outcome of a test result, a lawsuit, separation, not knowing the outcome; 4) Complicated losses - primary, secondary, and limbo losses going on at the same time. The reactions to loss could be feelings of anxiety, depression, helplessness, fear, emptiness, despair, pessimism, irritability, and anger, among others.
