Troy Smith

Hi, I’m Troy! Across my experience as a social worker, I’ve treated a variety of clients representing a wide range of identities and lived experiences. I have supported people with specific concerns through stages of life, history of complex trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges. Additionally, I have specific focus on treating substance use disorders, ADHD with skill building, and navigating complex systems. I value the opportunity to provide new perspectives to clients and to “get unstuck.” My approach is highly collaborative and receptive to my clients’ preferences and needs. I often utilize positive reframing to empower clients to be their own change-makers and to find independence and reconnection. I am motivated by the potential for each client to reduce challenging mental health symptoms, improve healthy behavioral changes, and apply their learning for long-term, sustainable impact. I believe in encouragement and strengths rather than deficits and weaknesses, and I incorporate mindfulness and somatic work into my practice.
