Rhonda Smith

Seeking counseling isn’t a sign of weakness — it’s an act of courage. It takes incredible strength to face painful emotions, sit with discomfort, and take steps toward healing. While many believe therapy is about advice or quick fixes, it’s really about being deeply heard, seen, and accepted without judgment. Each person carries a unique story shaped by lived experience, and I hold deep respect for the bravery it takes to share that story in a therapeutic space. No matter what someone brings into the room, I aim to create a space where they feel safe, empowered, and deeply understood.I work with clients from four years of age through adulthood and bring a warm, compassionate presence into each session. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your child, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in this process. Feel free to reach out for a free consultation — your story matters, and you don’t have to navigate it alone. At the heart of my approach is empathy and authentic connection. I draw from a person-centered, & child centered play therapy, humanistic theoretical approaches that honors the inner resilience of each client. I am trained in Brainspotting and am currently pursuing certifications as a Registered Play Therapist, AutPlay Provider, and ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP). As Carl Rogers once said, “When someone really hears you without passing judgment on you, without trying to take responsibility for you, without trying to mold you, it feels damn good.”
