Today, Life Psychology is a thriving practice with two convenient locations in Berrien Springs and Battle Creek. Our team of licensed counselors, social workers, and psychologists offers compassionate, personalized care for individuals, couples, and families, continuing Dr. Smith’s vision of providing accessible, high-quality mental health support.

This means that all aspects of your participation in therapy are confidential as outlined by federal and state law.

Your therapist will cover the details of confidentiality, including law mandated limitations in your first therapy session.
