About me

Welcome!
Starting as a peer mediator in 5th grade, the people around me saw something greater in me.

I am now a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with over 7 years of experience working with client's from infants to late adulthood. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting problems. I have helped many people who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse, and am also adoption competent.

Coupled with CBT, my approach tends to be person centered and solution focused. I am considered an eclectic counselor as I tend to use different techniques and modalities; play is one of my favorites. As standard a practice, I believe you can change as long as you're willing to put in the work! I meet you where you are, move at your pace, and help work to destigmatize you of any labels. Then, we can move in the direction of positive growth.

Counseling only works if you do! It takes courage to seek more for yourself and to take steps towards change. It’s my pleasure to help you find your missing peace. I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Denisha Smith. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Denisha has been the light at the end of a very long and dark tunnel. She’s relatable, professional, knowledgeable, funny, and personable. We are so lucky to have stumbled across Denisha!

Denisha's been amazing. I couldn't recommend her strongly enough. She is so patient and really got to understand the problems we were having. She has been a huge help.

Great suggestions for relevant information online to assist in my situation. Unfortunately some relationships aren't meant to be and Denisha helped with the separation aswell. Never settle for a toxic partner.

Denisha is absolutely wonderful. She is very creative in her approach to conflict resolution and sees the light at the end of any tunnel. She is understanding and open to all perspectives, just what we needed.

Denisha is super nice and respects anything you say to her, she treats you as if she was your mom but a very nice mom or even just as a friend. She is there whenever you need her ❤

Bonus part is that she's also super funny (in a good way obvs).
Definitely recommend her if you're looking for someone to talk to.
