About Reggie Smith, LPC, CTP, CCATP

I came a looong way to meet you here. I traveled through the potholes of life such as witnessing domestic violence, losing my mother as a child, growing up in 4 households in 3 states, half of which spent poor. Emotional abuse and putdowns left their indelible marks that negatively impacted my career and relationships. No amount of achieving, women or money could outrun those core emotional wounds. I ran but I could not hide! I looked ok, but wasn’t ok, even as others thought I was totally ok. But as I rounded the rough side of the mountain, I did (and am doing) my work, while discovering my purpose. That purposeful journey has led me to meet you and to help you navigate those jagged rocks of relationships, anxiety and trauma that appear along the roadway of life. Although most of those rocks likely were not your fault but have become your responsibility. I can help introduce who you are, with whom you want to be. Don’t worry, I got you! ☺
