Ben Smith, AMFT

"Through my studies and dedication to the field of Addiction, I offer a comprehensive

perspective on therapy and coaching for individuals, couples, and teens.

In 2013, I earned a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Trevecca

Nazarene University in Nashville, Tennessee. During my internship there, I worked

with a wide range of clients, including individuals, couples, and families. While

earning my degree, I worked at Vanderbilt Medical Center as a Spanish Medical

Interpreter.  I completed an externship in EFT, Emotionally Focused Therapy.

My undergraduate degree was earned from Middle Tennessee State University in

Spanish. Since the time I lived in Mexico City for two years starting at the age of 19, I

became fascinated with the Spanish language and the diversity of Latin American

cultures.

"I completed post-graduate training with Patrick Carnes and associates in 2014 and

became an Associate Sexual Addiction Therapist (ASAT). Additionally, I studied

with the Proctor Gallagher Institute, being trained, and mentored by the greatest

teacher of human potential and success, Bob Proctor. I am an international speaker

and presenter with my most recent presentations given in China and Cambodia with

Reach Out and Learn. I started working with Stillwater Academy in August of 2022

helping troubled youth and their families from all over the US. I am extremely

passionate about creating success for people all over the world, helping them

overcome life’s challenges, and creating the life of their dreams. Home for me, my

wife, and children are Utah and Tennessee. My hobbies include spending time with

my family, cooking, rustic woodwork, riding horses, camping, fishing, Lake Powell,

The Great Smokey Mountains, tacos, and a cappella music."
