  My name is Samantha Smith, Psy.D., IMH-E® and I am a psychologist living in New Jersey. I hold a psychology license in New Jersey and Utah- where I was living for 8 years before moving back to New Jersey. In my graduate training, I worked primarily with children ages 4 through 14 years old. During my time in Utah, I worked for a nonprofit providing therapy and assessment services for children from birth through 7 years of age. Throughout my experiences, I worked with children presenting with a variety of difficulties including trauma, anxiety, mood, ADHD, complex grief, autism, developmental delays, and more. I am trained in various evidence-based treatments and assessment tools for young children and their families which are explained in more detail on this website. I was the Psychology Training Director of the nonprofit's competitive, nationally accredited internship program. I have been serving on the board for the Utah Association for Infant Mental Health (UAIMH) where I am the current President and am an endorsed Infant Mental Health Specialist and Reflective Supervisor. I have presented at both the national and local level on topics related to infant and early childhood mental health. As an individual who believes that learning and growth is a lifelong journey, I ensure I am up to date on all certifications and attend several professional development opportunities every year in hopes of providing the best services to the people I work with as possible.
