Karem Smith is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for trauma treatment with personal injury patients. She believes that past traumatic experiences can shape how we’re triggered and how we respond to challenges in the present, and she is personable and empathetic in her approach — with a deep understanding of how difficult life experiences can contribute to anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and feelings of insecurity. She recognizes that reaching out for support takes real strength and courage, and she also helps clients build self-advocacy skills and communicate more effectively to strengthen their personal relationships.
