“Long story short: Everyone can benefit from Isaac’s services. Make this a priority and do it sooner than later. When you do, you’ve got to meet Isaac. I’m forever grateful for meeting Isaac and acquiring ongoing services from him. I met Isaac at a time that I thought therapy was necessary and didn’t know what to expect as I hadn’t been to therapy before - Isaac immediately made me feel comfortable talking to him, I think his personality and “style” is exceptional and appreciated in this type of environment. I felt like I had lost control with a couple elements in life and over the course of a couple months Isaac has helped me understand and navigate to where I want to be. Simply life changing. I will stay with Isaac on an ongoing basis.”

“Isaac possesses a natural ability not only actively listen, but also to provide valuable feedback in a manner that leaves you hopeful, understood, validated, and empowered. He freely shares his wide breadth of knowledge & invites you to be included in the growing process. He is easy to talk to no matter what the concern, subject matter, or context. He is relatable, affirming, and understanding. Isaac invites you to be your best self.”

“Isaac Smith is an outstanding clinician and mental health provider. He is patient-centered, collaborative, and he is comfortable working with patients in different clinical settings. Mr. Smith also helped us to start our collaborative care program (within Primary Care) at UC Davis Health. He works very well in an inter professional environment. Most importantly, his patients and colleagues trust him implicitly."

"Isaac is an incredibly skilled therapist and grief counselor. During his work at a hospice agency he was able to create an accepting, safe environment to delicately guide clients through their grieving process. His work is client-centered, empathetic and he has the ability to meet people where they are at. He embodies both compassion and therapeutic knowledge. You can tell he truly cares about each client and is made for this work."
Camille Johnson, LMFT
"Isaac is a colleague of mine, with whom I have great respect for. Isaac has a way about him that makes people (of all ages, cultures, genders and sexual orientations) feel immediately comfortable; his knowledge is always impressing me. The biggest compliment I can give a therapist is to answer this question, 'Would I feel comfortable seeing them as my therapist?' and in regards to Isaac the answer is a definite 'yes.'"

“[My therapist] is extremely caring and completely present in session. I appreciate [their] guidance as my session organically moves in the direction it is intended. [My therapist] intuitively knows where I may be having difficulties and provides exercises in session and tools that help me to understand and allows me to move a little closer to a healthier, happier, guilt free outlook. I was lost when I started. I now feel I have a much better understanding of my struggles and appropriate, practical tools to help me daily. So thankful my physician recommended.”
