residential treatment center for teenagers

Ben Smith

Therapist

Through my studies and dedication to the field of Addiction, I offer a comprehensive perspective on therapy and coaching for individuals, couples, and teens. In 2013, I earned a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, Tennessee. During my internship there, I worked with a wide range of clients, including individuals, couples, and families. While earning my degree, I worked at Vanderbilt Medical Center as a Spanish Medical Interpreter.  I completed an externship in EFT, Emotionally Focused Therapy. My undergraduate degree was earned from Middle Tennessee State University in Spanish. Since the time I lived in Mexico City for two years starting at the age of 19, I became fascinated with the Spanish language and the diversity of Latin American cultures.

I completed post-graduate training with Patrick Carnes and associates in 2014 and became an Associate Sexual Addiction Therapist (ASAT). Additionally, I trained with the Proctor Gallagher Institute, being trained and mentored by the greatest teacher of human potential and success, Bob Proctor. I am an international speaker and presenter with my most recent presentations given in China and Cambodia with Reach Out and Learn. I am extremely passionate about creating webinars for people all over the world, helping them overcome life’s challenges, and creating the life of their dreams. Home for me, my wife, and my children are Utah and Tennessee. My hobbies include spending time with my family, rustic woodwork, riding horses, camping, fishing, Lake Powell, The Great Smokey Mountains, and acapella music.
