Naomi Smith, LCSW

Naomi Smith is an LCSW who helps people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, stress and anxiety, grief, trauma and addiction concerns. She works with issues around intimacy, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar. Naomi also supports those dealing with adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver stress, divorce, domestic violence fallout, isolation, veterans-related issues, and women’s health concerns.

Naomi offers a straightforward, talk-based approach. Sessions focus on practical steps people can take right away. She listens, reflects what matters to each person, and helps set clear goals for change. Conversation is paired with problem-solving and strategies people can try between meetings.

Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Clark Atlanta University and a mix of social work and clinical roles in schools, military settings, and child-abuse and neglect services. Naomi’s work history spans social work roles and clinical counseling with individuals, families, and couples across different settings.

She often blends methods that match a person’s needs, drawing on techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. That mix helps her tailor sessions to relationship issues, mood concerns, and behavior change.

Naomi practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. She holds the credential Licensed Clinical Social Worker, abbreviated LCSW. If someone is unsure whether her approach fits, she encourages a short conversation to clarify goals and next steps.

How Naomi’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It often helps with anxiety, stress, and decisions about relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and testing small changes to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood, or sleep problems. Both approaches are practical and task-oriented, which can fit well into shorter online sessions.

Naomi treats finding the right method as a joint process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether an approach like ACT or CBT makes sense, and the plan is adjusted over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, remove travel time, and allow quick check-ins when schedules are tight. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the current options before booking so you know what will be offered. Licensed professionals, including therapists, can often adapt exercises and homework to remote work so people can practice new skills between appointments.
