About Kristi
Kristi Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oregon who focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, parenting, and self esteem. She frames therapy around a client's strengths and life story. She aims to make the first step toward support feel manageable and respectful of each person's pace.
With 12 years of clinical experience, Kristi works with people facing depression, motivation struggles, and confidence gaps. She also helps with communication problems, attachment and family of origin issues, and the practical fallout from separation or divorce. Other areas she sees include codependency, infidelity, blended family challenges, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Her approach centers on helping people recognize and use their existing strengths. Sessions often involve talking through immediate problems and trying small, workable changes between meetings. Kristi helps clients build clearer communication, reset expectations, and practice self-care habits that support steady progress.
People who are dealing with guilt, shame, or the emotional effects of cancer or Seasonal Affective Disorder can bring those concerns into therapy. She also supports those working on self-love and rebuilding confidence after relationship setbacks. Her work emphasizes practical steps and steady emotional learning rather than quick fixes.
