Shaniqua Smith, LCSW, CSW

Shaniqua Smith, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker based in Georgia. She founded Therapy All Day, LLC and brings five years of practice in psychiatric hospitals, nonprofit settings, and independent work. Her sessions aim to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and addictions in straightforward, practical ways.

Shaniqua uses everyday language and a warm presence to make sessions feel approachable. She combines attachment-based ideas with client-centered care and tools from cognitive behavioral and emotionally-focused approaches. Clients can expect someone who listens closely, remembers details, and brings both energy and calm to the room.

Her approach focuses on uncovering patterns that keep people stuck and strengthening coping skills that can be used outside sessions. She often helps clients work on communication problems, control issues, and building self-love. Shaniqua also supports people facing grief, parenting stress, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, HIV/AIDS related issues, and life transitions.

Outside of therapy she is a hiking enthusiast and created Hike & Heal, an outdoor option that blends movement, mindfulness, and conversation. That perspective shows up in her work - she encourages practical steps and small routines that add up over time.

Shaniqua describes therapy as collaborative. She helps people slow down, try new habits, and build confidence to live more in line with their values. Her style is direct, caring, and focused on tools that stay with the person after sessions end.

Approach-focused options for online and guided care

Shaniqua often draws from attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice and change the ways they relate to others. Client-centered therapy centers the person’s experience and priorities, with the therapist offering reflective listening and support to help the client find their own solutions. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, needs, and what feels helpful. Together they will try different strategies and adjust the plan based on what is working.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing a shorter check-in during a break. It can also let people use approaches like mindfulness exercises, skills practice, and communication coaching from wherever they are. The focus is on practical strategies that translate into everyday routines and make it simpler to try new coping tools between sessions.
