Dr. Smith, 2019-20 is named as one of LA's TOP 10 THERAPISTS by the Motion Picture and Television Directory (MPTD) organization. "Call Dr. Smith … checkout his website darreljsmith.com … you will soon see why we named Dr. Smith one of LA's TOP 10 THERAPISTS" (MPTD). Dr. Smith continues … "I work with adults of all ages. My approach is to be actively engaged using curiosity and compassion, to understand your history, relationships, and struggles. This helps you to better understand yourself, and by us working together you will create new choices in your beliefs and behaviors, that will create positive change in your life."
As a Professor teaching Masters and Doctoral students to be Therapists, and as a Therapist with years of practice, and my own life experiences, this provides me with an excellent background for me to help others. I work with patients who struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, substance abuse, anger management, trauma, and parenting.
Most importantly, if you reach out to me (a free consultation), I will help you find the help you need. I have a deep and sincere passion for helping people find the right help, and make positive changes that they can sustain throughout their entire life.

In the first few sessions I do a thorough assessment with my clients. This helps to ensure we are treating what needs to be treated in a priority order. Then the treatment plan is communicated to the clients. Typically treatment starts off with weekly sessions then, as the client(s) progresses, this is usually moved to a session every other week then to "as needed".
