CEO / Instructor / Wife / Mom
Hello! I’m Adrienne Smith, a passionate and dedicated counselor with over 6 years of experience as a counselor and over 16 years in education. My mission is to inspire and nurture the next generation of educators by providing a structured, informative, and research-based learning environment where educators acknowledge their students' home experiences impact their academics, behavior, and social life in school.
Throughout my career, I have been honored with inspiring students to use the power of their voices, recognizing my commitment to mental health and nurturing counseling methods. My approach is student-centered, and solution-focused, focusing on individual strengths and forward-thinking.
Beyond the counseling field, I love spending time in nature on scenic trails, kayaking, being with my family, and discovering new places. My interest reflects my belief in lifelong learning and the importance of balance and well-being.
As a strong advocate for self-healing initiatives, I actively promote safe and supportive school environments. I lead professional developments on trauma-informed situations, emphasizing the critical role of the community, parents, and educators in supporting students' mental health.
