I serve adult individuals experiencing mental health challenges or navigating major life changes, from all walks of life.  I am especially adept at serving high achievers and complex developmental trauma survivors.  My practice is centered around developing intentions, building mind-body awareness, and healing/growing intrapersonal and interpersonal connection.

My name is Nicolas Smith, and I currently am employed with Ohio Guidestone as a Behavioral Health Specialist and Counseling Intern. I work with children from ages 5 years old to 18 years old both in school and outside of school as needed. I also work with adult clients who are diagnosed with mental health and/or substance use disorders. 

I graduated with my Bachelors in Psychology and Criminology from Capital University in 2020. Currently, I am enrolled at Heidelberg University pursuing my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and projected to finish in December 2023. 

I currently have my Counselor in Training license, with plans to take my LPC exam at the end of 2023. I also have my Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistant Preliminary license and will apply for my Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistant 2 license this summer.

I specialize in working with those who struggle with anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges.  My passion is to empower individuals and couples to live life to the fullest. I provide a non-judgmental space for clients to work through difficult experiences and come out stronger.  I have experience working in a non-profit community mental health agency as well as private practice servings.  I have worked with a variety of people helping to address many different mental health needs.   I specialize in helping older teens, adults, and couples deal with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and relationship challenges.  I help clients learn coping skills, set healthy boundaries, and use problem-solving skills to help resolve conflict.  I earned a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Ashland Theological Seminary. It would be my privilege to walk with you on your transformational path of healing.
