Christopher Michael Smith is a dedicated Clinical Social Worker and therapist with over 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults facing challenges such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), depression, anxiety, and trauma. He understands that emotional dysregulation can hinder potential and participation in various environments, leading individuals to internalize feelings of inadequacy. Christopher's approach is centered on recognizing and nurturing his clients' abilities, honoring their unique differences, and providing opportunities to observe behavioral patterns that may hinder progress. He is committed to fostering strong, trusting, and empathic relationships with individuals, families, and systems to enhance their well-being. By guiding clients to identify and practice effective emotional regulation strategies, Christopher encourages a shift in perspective—focusing more on strengths and abilities rather than perceived deficits. He believes that, often influenced by external factors, individuals can become preoccupied with their shortcomings. In his practice, Christopher creates a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to explore their strengths and motivations for change. Together, they work to uncover inner resources, enhance problem-solving skills, and develop empowerment strategies for lasting transformation.
