Smith Broadwell

Hi! I’m Smith (they/them). I have a deep and abiding love for Trader Joe’s Bay Blend coffee and for kids’ descriptions of things they don’t know the word for. With a broad background in traumatic stress, expressive arts, and theology, I am always drawn to what we learn and unlearn about ourselves in life’s roughest moments and the sense we make out of it all. I practice a holistic, intersectional, person-centered approach while clients explore their struggles, hopes, identities, and beyond.

Many clients I work with deal with the effects of anxiety, depression, body image, religious trauma, coming out, transitioning, dissociation, relationship conflict, and acute and complex trauma. We use modalities ranging from expressive arts and movement to Cognitive Processing Therapy and Somatic EMDR. Above all, I take an approach that responds to what feels comfortable and right for you.
