About Naomi

Naomi Smith is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida who supports people navigating relationship strains, family and parenting challenges, stress and anxiety, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, ADHD, and a wide range of life adjustments.

Background and approach

She also works with concerns related to intimacy, sleeping difficulties, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and LGBT issues, and maintains additional focus on adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, domestic violence, family problems, isolation and loneliness, veteran and armed forces issues, and women’s issues. Her style blends collaborative, client-centered work with evidence-informed techniques.

Naomi draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to foster values-based action, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address attachment and relationship dynamics. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused strategies also shape brief goal-oriented work when appropriate.

Naomi’s clinical background includes social work and several years of direct practice in diverse settings, and she brings a practical, empathetic approach to helping clients set goals and build sustainable skills.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Naomi uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify personal values and take meaningful actions even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present; this approach can be useful for anxiety, mood challenges, and coping with life changes. She also incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical strategies for managing mood, sleep, anger, or ADHD-related difficulties. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) informs her work with relationship and attachment concerns by exploring emotional responses and fostering stronger connection between partners.

Choosing the right approach is presented as a collaborative process. Naomi works with clients to explore goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped previously, and she adapts methods over time so treatment aligns with each person’s needs and pace.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or connect from different locations. These options allow continuing momentum between sessions and let clients choose formats that best support their engagement and daily life.
