Hello! My name is D'Ana Smith, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas. I have worked in, learned from, impacted, and been impacted by the field of social work for 20+ incredible years. For most of my career, I have enthusiastically served communities, families, teens, adults, and the elderly in and around the New Orleans Metropolitan area. My experience includes crisis counseling, medical and primary care support, mental health and wellness, workforce development, and program planning.
I am YOU-centered in my approach to therapy. It is my sincere commitment that therapy be customized to meet your individual needs. No matter the “what” or “why” that has brought us
together, I am committed to working together to explore, discover, improve, and lighten your daily functioning. We’ll journey at a pace that works for you and honors you as the expert in your life. While I will use evidence-based treatments to guide our journey, I also welcome and integrate organic frameworks that celebrate your unique experiences, including cultural, ethnic, and geographic perspectives.
