Introduction

Hi, I’m Jessica Smith, MS, LPC-MHSP, AS—a psychotherapist, clinical supervisor, and the founder of Smith Behavioral Health and Wellness, based in Nashville, TN. I specialize in helping individuals navigate depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and life transitions using a holistic, culturally responsive approach. I began this work after witnessing the powerful transformation that therapy can offer—especially when it’s delivered with care, cultural sensitivity, and a deep understanding of the whole person. My style is relational, grounded, and integrative. I often incorporate Brainspotting, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and parts work (IFS-informed) to help clients access clarity and healing not just in the mind, but in the body and spirit too. I believe wellness is more than symptom relief—it’s about reclaiming joy, balance, and self-trust. Whether you're looking for traditional therapy, a more immersive therapy intensive, or a space to release the pressure of being "strong" all the time, we’re here to walk with you. Our practice is a good fit for professionals, creatives, students, and anyone who’s ready to do the deep work of healing. We honor the unique experiences of BIPOC clients, and our team is passionate about creating a safe, affirming space for growth. Let’s begin the work of coming home to yourself.
