Hi there! I'm Kacie. I founded Smart Counseling Solutions in 2017 after working in the field for 15+ years. I started my journey as a direct care professional working in acute care, residential, educational, and recreational settings. This inspired me to become a therapist. 

​

I then completed a Master's in School and Professional Counseling, working in various settings again as a clinician. This experience was both rewarding and frustrating. As a counselor, I got to bring out the best in my clients, but I found organizational and systemic barriers at every turn. This led me to pursue a PhD in Business Psychology. 

​

As a Business Psychologist, I apply psychological principles to create intentional leaders and teams that drive transformational change in organizations. Emphasizing the integration of emotional intelligence and strategic thinking into organizational systems and structures, my approach is uniquely empathetic yet results-oriented. 

​

In my work as a clinician, I support and empower those in my care. Whether providing psychoeducation, therapy, or clinical supervision my goal is to bring out the best in my clients.
