About Jason Smithers, LPC

I’m a strengths-based therapist who works with adults 18 and up, helping people navigate depression, anxiety, and major life changes—like a career shift, divorce, or the loss of someone close.

As a three-time author and lifelong creative, I especially enjoy working with artists, musicians, and writers who want to live healthier, more fulfilling lives while pursuing their best work.

How I Work

My approach is collaborative and practical. I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help you identify what’s working and build on it. From there, we create simple, realistic steps that move you toward where you want to be. I also integrate creative and values-based approaches to help you reconnect with what matters most and find direction when life feels uncertain.
