Alba Perez Smith is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Rhode Island (RI LICSW ISW04393) with three years of clinical experience. She works with clients across a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, addictions, depression and bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue, sleep difficulties, anger, grief, family conflict, career transitions, and challenges with self-esteem and motivation.
Alba provides LGBTQ-affirming care and offers therapy in Spanish, and she brings the perspective of a therapist of color who is a gay female clinician. She approaches each person as the expert of their own story and builds on individual strengths to support meaningful change.
Seeking therapy requires courage, and Alba aims to empower and support people as they take steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life. She is based in Rhode Island and practices as a licensed social worker committed to collaborative, respectful care.
Many people ask whether therapy delivered online can really help. For a wide range of common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is flexibility. People can meet with therapists in the way that fits their schedules and comfort levels - via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to maintain regular appointments and integrate therapy into a busy life.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many, online therapy is a practical, effective way to access professional support while accommodating personal needs and routines.
