Kel Smith

I am a queer, neurodivergent, trans woman and somatic therapist. I am here to support my clients in navigating an array of subject matters, including symptoms associated with anxiety, dissociation, depression, gender exploration, and life transitions. I am trained to support my clients in developing more understanding of themselves by spending intentional time being curious about what’s coming up in their bodies.

My training and experience have included various subjects such as neurodivergence, harm reduction, disability justice, queer-affirming therapy, class dynamics, kinks, polyamory, and non-monogamy. My approach to psychotherapy is client-centered, trauma-informed, and built on the value of ongoing, informed, and explicit consent.

Maybe you are a trans woman who desires to work with a therapist who is also a trans woman. Maybe you want to cultivate more awareness and agency over the impulses and urges that your anxieties bring up for you. Maybe you long to slow down and be with what comes up for you in a spacious and consensual environment. Either way, I am here to respect and empower your autonomy while being a supportive agent of change on your path to living a more fulfilled life.
