Danielle Smith, LMHC

Danielle Smith, LMHC MH counseling from a DBT/trauma lens. Helping you overcome barriers to your life worth living.

Asking for help is the single greatest display of both vulnerability and strength. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe, inclusive environment where individuals can foster the innovation, creativity, and strength that result from such an admirable display. I utilize a trauma-informed, person-centered approach to guide my individuals (13+) and families along their journey towards their goals.

My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, trauma, post-traumatic stress, personality disorders, mood disorders, and life adjustments. I am trained in multiple evidenced based modalities including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Seeking Safety, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). Whatever barriers are getting in the way of your life worth living, whatever that may look like for you, I am here to provide you guidance and support in navigating and overcoming those roadblocks within a safe space. This space is yours to innovate, to create, to change – free of judgment, full of unconditional guidance and acceptance.

I wouldn't be a DBT therapist if I didn't wholeheartedly believe that everything is happening as it should. I had a plan to launch a blog in a very specific way. And then...everything happened as it should.

Happy , world. Take a moment to take care of yourselves & take care of those around you. Mental health IS health.

I wouldn't be a DBT therapist if I didn't wholeheartedly believe that everything happens as it should. Making this post isn't how I envisioned me launching my blog. Truth be told, I actually have a post that I started last week sitting in my drafts, 75% finished. That was the post I envisioned launc...

I have several openings and am now able to accept multiple insurances including Aetna, BCBS of Massachusetts, Cigna, Oscar Health, Oxford, and United Healthcare. I work with adolescents 13+ and primarily focus on borderline personality disorder, anxiety, depression, and trauma (acute, chronic, and complex). If you know of anyone looking for services, please feel free to share 🙂

I strive to guide my clients along their journey towards self-awareness, peace, authenticity, resiliency, and (inner) knowledge. Through the process of having taken this journey myself, I connect with my clients on a deeply personal level, bringing what I can only hope is received as a supportive an...
