Gregory Smith, Counselor/Therapist, Fort Mitchell Alabama, Columbus Georgia, Online

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Asking for help is a sign of strength, especially if you are looking for healing and restoration from Early Childhood Adversities. I am a licensed therapist that specializes in treating individuals who have experienced early childhood adversities resulting in complex post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), dissociative identity disorder (DID), and other related problems including depression, addictions, and anxiety.

My passion for this field developed early on in my career as a missionary pastor as I saw the immense impact that early childhood trauma can have on a person’s mental health and well-being. As a former North Carolina Paramedic for 10 years, and serving as a flight medic in the NC Air National Guard, I saw my share of various types of traumas. Later, as a missionary pastoral counselor living in Germany and ministering to US Military stationed there, I learned about the long term impact trauma can have on a person’s life.

I believe that everyone has the potential for healing and growth, and it is my goal to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can work through their trauma and reclaim their lives. I have extensive experience working with clients who have experienced a range of traumatic experiences, including physical and emotional abuse, neglect, sexual assault and structured mind control techniques. I use a trauma-informed approach to therapy, which means that I am sensitive to the unique needs and experiences of my clients and work collaboratively with them to develop a treatment plan that meets their specific needs.

By seeking therapy, you are taking responsibility and action to change what no longer works in your life. Many studies have shown throughout the years that psychotherapy is an effective form of treating and managing mental illnesses and other emotional disorders.

With honesty and compassion, I will work with you to create an open channel of communication. The goal of our therapy sessions together, will be to help you develop the mental fortitude needed to lead a successful life.
