Paula Smith

Therapist

LCSW

Female

I am Licensed in the State of Georgia and the State of Connecticut and I hold multiple certifications in therapy. Additionally, I am certified in Equine Psychotherapy. My practice is held in Dublin GA where we can do face-to-face therapy, equine therapy, or telehealth. My counseling style is strength-based. Strength-based therapy is one approach to positive psychotherapy that focuses on your internal strengths and resourcefulness instead of focusing on weaknesses, failures, and shortcomings. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you maximize them to overcome your obstacles and return to your best level of functioning so you can have a higher quality of life. From each session, I would hope that you take away with you a reduction in stress, new tools to help manage stressors/anxieties/disruptions, and the ability to stay in the moment and to start processing your day in a positive way.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, providers on Psych Hub pay fees to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We have a contractual relationship with each provider that governs the terms of their participation on the site, and in some cases, as mentioned above, their use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
