Micheal Frances SmithMarriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

About

I have available session times with associates under my direct supervision. Choosing a therapist is not like choosing other medical professionals: there are some specific questions you must ask yourself. Do you feel heard and understood by the therapist? Do you trust the therapist? These are questions a person should ask before deciding who to trust with their life story. I find that it's essential to meet in advance to determine if we could make progress together, and I encourage you to ask the above questions of yourself as you speak to me, or any other licensed therapist. Personal psychology is deeply intertwined with the stories we tell ourselves. Your story is where we begin to unravel a problem and follow it to its root cause. We’ll begin with your personal story and reflect on how it relates to the story of you in your family and society at large. Meanwhile, we'll employ strategies to reduce your current anxiety.
