01About Lindsay
Lindsay Smith is a licensed clinician practicing in Maryland. She holds MD and LCPC credentials and brings eight years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and depression. She aims to create a calm, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard.
Lindsay believes people are the experts in their own lives and that they carry strengths to manage hard moments. She encourages small steps toward clearer goals and greater wellbeing.
Background and approach
Her work focuses on everyday problems that pile up - repeated arguments, parenting strain, moving through a breakup, or feeling stuck during life changes. She also helps with intimacy issues, self-esteem struggles, body image, and the emotional fallout of separation or blended family stress. Lindsay draws on several approaches to fit each person’s needs.
She uses client-centered conversations alongside cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness practices to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Dialectical skills and acceptance strategies are added when emotion regulation or painful memories make change harder. Sessions are practical and collaborative.
Clients can expect clear goals, skill practice between visits, and discussion about what is or isn’t helping. Lindsay offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to make ongoing care easier to fit into daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online access
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and take steps toward what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and times when values and actions feel out of sync.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify thinking patterns that keep problems going and teaches practical strategies to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress when small behavior shifts can make a difference.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for people who feel overwhelmed by intense feelings. It can help with impulsivity, relationship conflicts, and managing big mood swings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and styles. Video lets conversations feel more face to face. Phone can be a quicker check-in or useful when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging support short check-ins, notes between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to keep up with on a regular basis.
