About Quinton
Quinton Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi who helps people struggling with anger, stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and related concerns. He speaks plainly and focuses on what people bring to sessions. He asks questions, listens, and works with each person to set clear goals they can try between meetings.
Quinton starts by getting a full picture of a person's life. He looks at emotional, social, work, and cultural factors to understand what fuels trouble points like anger or low self-esteem.
Background and approach
He asks for collaboration and honesty so goals are realistic and useful. His style centers on the person in front of him. He practices client-centered therapy that emphasizes genuineness, acceptance, and nonjudgmental listening.
He pairs that with techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches and mindfulness to help shift unhelpful thoughts and habits. Quinton also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people clarify values and take practical steps toward them. For people with trauma-related symptoms he may integrate trauma-informed methods and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing concepts when appropriate.
With ten years of experience, he works with people from diverse backgrounds and life situations, including issues around relationships, grief, parenting, multicultural concerns, and career stress. His aim is to help people build skills that last beyond therapy and to support growth in everyday life.

How his therapeutic approaches translate online
Quinton commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in remote work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-driven steps despite difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying out different behaviors to reduce anger, anxiety, or low mood.Finding the best approach is a shared process. He collaborates with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is tracked. That collaborative process helps guide whether more mindfulness practices, behavioral experiments, or trauma-focused work is used.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text messaging helps with brief reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, and busy family schedules while keeping treatment consistent and practical.
