Licensed Psychologist

Florida License #PY9755 | U.S. Virgin Islands License #22-048-PSY

​

Dr. Jasset Smith is a licensed psychologist with advanced training in clinical psychology and extensive experience working with individuals across the lifespan. She earned her Master of Science degree in Psychology from Florida International University and practiced as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor for six years prior to completing her Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at Carlos Albizu University.

​

Dr. Smith completed her predoctoral internship at Broughton Hospital in Morganton, North Carolina, where she specialized in the diagnosis and treatment of severe mental illness. She has broad experience conducting psychological assessments with children, adults, and older adults, and has worked extensively with individuals impacted by single-incident and complex trauma, including the development of maladaptive personality patterns following chronic stress or trauma exposure. She completed her postdoctoral training at Watershed Addiction Treatment Programs, where she provided care to adults diagnosed with substance use and co-occurring disorders.

​

Dr. Smith approaches treatment from a holistic and integrative perspective. While symptom reduction is an important component of care, she also attends to the broader interpersonal, emotional, and social factors that may contribute to psychological distress. More recently, her clinical focus has emphasized helping individuals create meaning in their lives and cultivate fulfilling relationships, with the goal of not only healing, but also thriving. She is the author of “Applying Recovery Principles to the Treatment of Trauma,” published in the APA journal Professional Psychology: Research and Practice (Vol. 47, Issue 4), and has facilitated workshops focused on trauma recovery, mental health, and overall well-being.

 

Dr. Smith’s work is grounded in a person-centered framework, guided by the belief that with appropriate support, insight, and collaboration, individuals can reconnect with their authentic selves and create meaningful, lasting change.
