Shannon E. Smith
As a counselor, I am privileged to walk alongside clients on their paths to self-discovery, healing, and wellness. I combine compassion with directness, practicing with an anti-discrimination, anti-oppression, and anti-racist orientation. I deeply value the ways that our personal experiences shape our views of ourselves, others, and the world. My approach to counseling is integrative, client-centered, trauma-informed, and relational, aiming to support your personal growth and development.
I emphasize non-stigmatizing, non-pathologizing, and compassionate modalities, drawing from:
- Feminist Theory
- Social Justice Approaches
- Polyvagal Theory
- Brainspotting
- Systems Theory
- Emotionally Focused Therapy
- Attachment-Based Therapy
- Parts Work/Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Mindfulness
I am licensed in Louisiana and Tennessee, and I am currently offering therapy services to residents of Tennessee through telehealth. I will be relocating to Tennessee in fall of 2026, and that time I will be offering nature-based therapy.
