Psychodynamic
Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
For the past 21 years, I have been helping people discover the origins of their problems, and to heal from the resulting brokenness. Very often the brokeness began long before the symptoms and life struggles manifested. For individuals who have had adverse experiences that required dissociation to survive their traumas, finding the right therapist is not easy. My many years of working with traumatized individuals as a Pastoral Counselor combined with my clinical training has enabled me to help many heal and fully recover from their PTSD and dissociation. I provide a non judgmental approach to help people heal and recover so that they can live productive lives. My pastoral experience and Christian training enables me to help the whole person.

Dr. Jeffrey Spodak
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in working with people who are depressed or dealing with addiction, (alcohol abuse and compulsive sexual behaviors in particular). Sometimes even just beginning to speak out loud about your struggles can start the process of change. In our work together, we won't just manage your symptoms; we will look deeper. By exploring how these challenges first took root, you can gain the clarity needed to make empowered decisions today. This combination of insight and action can create powerful and lasting change.
