Michaela Smith

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
I am a licensed psychotherapist based in New York City and have been practicing for three years. My educational background includes masters degrees in Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling, which have allowed me extensive clinical experience with children, adolescents, young adults, adults and couples. Since my education covers a number of different populations and settings, I have been lucky enough to work with many different disorders and struggles. During my free time, I enjoy walking my dog through the neighborhood, spending time with my family, trying new restaurants and exercising. If you are interested in working with me, I am always happy to chat via phone or email to reassure clients and provide clarification to ensure that we are a good fit before beginning to work together. I look forward to hearing from you!

New York City, New York therapist: Matt McDavid, licensed clinical social worker
Serving LGBTQ+

Matt McDavid

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PLLC
Hi, I’m Matt, and I’m glad you found your way here. Everything you’ve already overcome to bring you to this moment, has given you all you need for the journey ahead. This path will lead you to who you were always meant to be. I'm here to provide you with a safe and supportive space where you can express yourself openly and honestly. When you allow yourself to be present with your feelings, you reconnect to your authentic self, opening the door for true joy in your life. You can learn to love yourself unconditionally, cultivate self-compassion, and feel at peace. Our strength-based work together will show you how! I believe the journey is less about changing yourself and more about letting go of what isn’t true to who you are, unlearning how you’ve been conditioned to see yourself, and recognizing that you’ve been good enough all along. Your story doesn’t have to be ghostwritten by what happened to you. You can become the conscious author of your own life. Moments of breakdown are also opportunities for breakthroughs. Like rays of light shining through the cracks of a vessel, our experiences of adversity can lead to profound growth and resilience. Together, we can embrace the journey of healing and transformation, finding strength and beauty in the very places where we once felt broken!
