Heather Smith

I provide a safe, supportive space where clients are truly heard without judgment. As an experienced professional, I bring extensive expertise in ACC Case Management, Family Court Coordination, Social Work, and Domestic Violence Counseling. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Positive Psychology, the Law of Attraction, and Solution-Focused techniques, empowering individuals to create meaningful change in their lives. Throughout my career, I have managed the Christchurch Women's Centre (Counseling), supervised student counselors, and worked closely with those affected by trauma. In addition to my therapeutic experience, I am a certified Equine-Assisted Therapist, Trauma-Informed Coach, and a registered NZAC supervisor, committed to guiding others toward healing and resilience.
