Accepting New Clients

Ryan Smith, She/They, any with respect

Ryan is getting her master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling at Marian University. They work with adolescents, teens, and adults. She has experience working with individuals who are neurodivergent, people with severe mental illness diagnoses, and individuals dealing with gender and sexuality issues as well as depression and anxiety.

Ryan believes that the heart of therapy starts with the relationship between the therapist and the client. Ryan focuses on creating a safe environment, collaborating, and fostering an honest relationship where people can feel comfortable being themselves to work on their goals. She focuses on CBT, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and existential therapy.

Ryan's goal is for clients to be able to establish their value systems, a sense of identity for themselves and to feel heard. Ultimately, she hopes to see them be in a place to feel empowered to make decisions, create boundaries, and manage and maintain healthy relationships.

In their spare time, Ryan enjoys writing music, rollerskating, spending time with friends, and traveling. She also loves karaoke and taking long hikes.

Ryan sees clients ages 12+ and adults.
