Meet the Team

Hi, I’m LeTizia Smith, a doctorally prepared, board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner.

For nearly two decades, I have cared for people experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, emotional overwhelm, and major life transitions. Throughout that time, I have seen how often capable, responsible people suffer quietly because they believe they should be able to manage everything on their own.

They keep working.

They continue parenting.

They show up for everyone else.

And because they are still functioning, people may not realize how much energy it is taking for them to get through the day.

I created Juniper House for the person who appears to have everything together but knows something has changed.

Perhaps your mind never stops racing. Maybe you are more irritable, disconnected, or emotionally exhausted than usual. You may be sleeping but never feeling rested. You may have lost interest in the things that once made you feel like yourself.

You do not need to arrive with a diagnosis. You only need to know that you are ready for something to feel different.
