Female

Hello, I'm Kimberly. I believe that my calling to be a therapist began long before I achieved my formal education. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker - Supervisor, I am passionate about providing the best care possible to my clients. I hold a Master of Science in Social Work from The Ohio State University and a Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Capital University, where I graduated Cum Laude in 1996. I've been an Independent Social Worker - Supervisor for the State of Ohio since 1994, and my journey in social work has taken me through various impactful roles.

I have extensive experience working in different areas of social work, including a significant tenure with the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, where I served as the Recovery Services supervisor for 11.5 years, providing treatment to 2800 female inmates. Additionally, I was the Mental Health Director at CRSI in Urbana, Ohio. For the past three years, I have been running my private practice, and I've supervised mental health and substance abuse treatment for nearly 20 years.

In my practice, I provide evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, paralleling scripture with treatment to offer a holistic approach. My specialties include addiction, dementia, anger management, antisocial behavior, anxiety, ADHD, autism spectrum support, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, children's and adolescent mental/behavioral health, depression, developmental disabilities, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, family relationships, gender identity, grief/bereavement, LGBTQIA+ support, life transitions, medical issues/physical health, medication evaluation, military/veteran support, multicultural/diversity issues, narcissistic personality disorder, OCD, perinatal support, phobias, PTSD, intimate/romantic relationships, psychosis/schizophrenia, sex/intimacy issues, sleep disorders, somatic symptom disorder, spirituality, stress, suicidal ideation/self-harming, trauma, and traumatic brain injury.

I understand that seeking therapy can be a daunting step, but I am here to support you through any challenges you may face. Whether you are dealing with the loss of a loved one, divorce, domestic violence, substance abuse, or any other mental health issue, I am here to help. I also offer depression assessments for spinal stimulator implants and drug and alcohol assessments. Group alcohol and drug treatment, as well as family treatment for clients dependent on alcohol or drugs, are available.

On a personal note, I have two grown sons, a Yorkie Pom, and my latest fur baby, a Maine Coon named Saymon from Poland, and Jazzy from Ukraine. I love Jesus Christ and strive to integrate my faith into my practice to provide the best possible care.

No one will be turned away from counseling regardless of their ability to pay. Our office hours are Monday and Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Thursday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Friday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Feel free to stop by for a cup of coffee at our coffee bar anytime. If you're ready to take the next step, you can schedule an appointment with me at the following link: https://www.sondermind.com/providers/knozkkz1/kimberly-smallwood. I look forward to working with you.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
