Shannon Smith, LISW-S, 1LT

Hello I'm Shannon Smith, Founder/Owner of Peace Post Trauma. I am an experienced Social Worker/Therapist and Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, who is dedicated to helping adults cope with mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression and anger. I hold a Master of Science and Social Administration with a focus on adult mental health from Case Western Reserve University and I have 10 years of experience in the mental health field among various populations. I'm passionate about my work and I understand the challenges of mental illness. I have dual roles, working as a civilian Therapist and serving as a Behavioral Health Officer in the Army.

My personal and professional experiences have provided me with an array of useful skills, such as expertise of approach methods to complex situations, attention to detail and meticulous listening. I'm blessed to walk with my clients in their healing journey. It's an honor to hear unique testimonies of strength and resilience.

If you are struggling with hardship and overwhelming emotions, please know that you're not alone. I help my clients learn healthy coping skills to maintain a relaxed mind, body, and spirit. I believe in tailored intervention to meet each person's specific needs.

I incorporate Christian values & Evidence-Based Practice to enhance the treatment outcome. Together we practice various techniques to reduce negative thoughts and uncomfortable feelings, making it easier to self-soothe.

I like to empower my clients to identify and embrace their strengths, becoming the best version of themselves possible. Sometimes all it takes is a little guidance to see yourself out of the dark and into the light.

May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you
