Shipowick-Smith Counseling LLC

Shipowick-Smith Counseling LLC is a full-service behavioral health and counseling practice serving individuals, couples, teens, and families in the Wenatchee Valley and surrounding areas. The practice is grounded in a practical, solution-focused approach that emphasizes collaboration, active participation, and frequent feedback. Through an interactive blend of counseling and coaching, clients are supported in developing skills that promote emotional regulation, healthier relationships, and long-term personal growth. Services address a wide range of mental health and behavioral concerns, including depression, anxiety, grief, family and couples challenges, career stress, and life transitions, all within a supportive and respectful environment.

A significant focus of care includes managing intense emotions and behavioral responses, with services that support anger management, stress management, and conflict resolution. Clients struggling with anger, frustration, or reactive behaviors are guided to better understand triggers, build coping strategies, and develop healthier ways to communicate and respond in challenging situations. These skills are often integrated into individual, family, or group counseling, making them especially helpful for relationship issues, parenting challenges, and court-related concerns.

The practice also provides comprehensive addiction and substance use services, including drug and alcohol assessments, individual and group counseling, relapse prevention, aftercare, and ongoing monitoring when required. Specialized offerings such as EMDR, eating disorder counseling, and intensive outpatient and educational programming further support recovery and emotional well-being. It is important to note that after thoughtful consideration, Shipowick-Smith Counseling LLC will be closing all services as of April 30, 2025, with gratitude for the opportunity to support the community’s mental health and recovery journeys.
