About

Roseann Smith, LCSW, brings sixteen years of clinical practice in Virginia to her work with individuals and couples. Her recent focus has been on supporting people with addiction and behavioral health concerns, and she has experience helping those living with severe mental illness, including bipolar and major depressive disorders. She has particular training in trauma work and in identifying resources that can reduce the intense feelings trauma can bring on.

Earlier in her career she provided counseling at a college student counseling center, providing her with familiarity in supporting young adults as they navigate relationship changes and the transition to adulthood. She uses a blend of motivational and strengths based strategies alongside cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices. Roseann also incorporates goal-setting when appropriate, working with clients to identify concrete steps between sessions that emerge from their shared work.

She describes her style as friendly and heartwarming, and past clients have found her funny and lighthearted. Roseann aims to create an approachable space for exploration while drawing on a range of therapeutic tools to address addictions, trauma, mood concerns, relationship and family issues, grief, and other areas included in her specialties.

Remote options and therapeutic methods

Roseann offers remote sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She draws on several evidence-informed approaches to tailor the work to each person's needs, combining practical skills training with an emphasis on personal strengths.



She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and to develop concrete coping strategies. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness techniques are used to teach emotion regulation and present-moment awareness, which can be helpful when intense feelings or trauma reactions arise. Motivational Interviewing is employed to explore readiness for change and to support clients in clarifying their own motivations when addressing substance use or behavioral shifts.



These approaches are integrated in a collaborative way: Roseann works with each person to set goals that feel meaningful and achievable, and she may recommend tasks between sessions when appropriate. Remote formats are used to maintain continuity and to fit different communication preferences, whether a person prefers talking by video or phone or working through live chat or text-based messaging.
