Naomi Smith is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing relationship strain, family challenges, parenting stress, trauma and abuse, anxiety, and depression. She offers down-to-earth support for grief, anger, sleep problems, substance use concerns, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Naomi earned her Master of Social Work at Clark Atlanta University and holds a Florida LCSW. She brings three years listed clinical experience and additional background in social work settings. Before her clinical roles she spent time in school and military-linked environments and worked with child welfare cases.

Her approach is practical and person-focused. Naomi uses methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Sessions usually involve talking through current problems, practicing new ways of responding, and setting small achievable steps between meetings.

Naomi pays attention to what matters most to each person. She aims to build trusting conversations and to help people try different ways to feel steadier. Work may include exploring family patterns, improving communication, managing strong emotions, or creating routines that support sleep and daily functioning.

People considering therapy are invited to start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. Naomi offers services from Florida and accepts international clients, with sessions conducted in English.

How Naomi Uses Talk Therapy Online and Practical Methods

Naomi often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choose actions that align with their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve sleep.

She approaches online work collaboratively. Finding the best approach is part of early sessions, and she will check in about what methods feel useful. Together the therapist and client set goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps most.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the current profile does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also support continuity when people move or travel, but confirm timing and logistics ahead of scheduling.
