Healing Deep Roots Counseling

About Us

Meet Mone’t Smith

A Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) with nearly 10 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based, and culturally responsive therapy. She works with individuals and teens 15 y/o and up, helping clients navigate trauma, anxiety, grief, and life transitions with empathy and expertise.

At her core, Mone’t believes that true healing begins when you feel safe to be fully seen and known. Her therapeutic approach blends science, faith, and soulful connection, integrating evidence-based practices such as EMDR and Trauma-Focused CBT using cultural responsiveness, Christian-based guidance, and authentic relational support. Through this holistic approach, Mone’t creates a safe and compassionate space where clients can process their pain, rediscover hope, and embrace lasting transformation.

After years working in inpatient and outpatient mental health, school counseling, grief counseling, and substance abuse treatment, she recognized a profound gap: too many people of color were navigating their mental health without truly feeling understood. Healing Deep Roots Counseling was born to change that. 

Healing starts with one step.
