Welcome. I’m happy to see you here.
Amelia Smith, PsyD.
Clinical Psychologist
I am Amelia Smith, a licensed Psychologist in Bend, Oregon.
Over the past ten years, I have provided treatment for families and individuals of all ages across a wide variety of settings.
I began my clinical work at the San Francisco Child Abuse Prevention Center, where I provided crisis intervention, risk assessment and counseling for stressed parents. I then worked with children in an elementary school in San Rafael, CA as a school therapist providing individual behavioral and play therapy as well as group therapy focused on issues such as divorce, social skill development and grief.
Following this experience I worked at the Family Service Agency of Marin, where I led a group for parents involved in high conflict divorce. I also provided individual therapy for a population of at-risk children, adolescents and adults in the Marin City area.
I then transitioned to my pre-doctoral residency at the Psychological Services Center in Oakland, CA. There I provided group and individual therapy, case management, consultation, and crisis intervention in a high school based setting. In addition I led weekly group therapy sessions for Mindfulness Training and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). During this time I also conducted adult, individual therapy and case management as well as family therapy in the community clinic setting. My work also included psycho-educational and psycho-diagnostic assessments for children and adults and I provided weekly supervision for graduate students in the Clinical Counseling program at Alliant International University.
I am currently working in private practice at Downtown Psychological Services in Bend, Oregon.
