More about Evalee
- 23 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW, LISW
Hello, my name is Evalee and I am a licensed clinical social worker in Georgia and South Carolina with over 20 years of experience working in mental health and social services as a counselor. I graduated from Savannah State University with a Master's degree in Social Work with a clinical concentration. I have worked in a variety of settings with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, Bipolar disorder, relationship issues, parenting problems, life changes, OCD, ADHD, ODD, anger management skills, LGBTQ related issues, intellectual disabilities, women's issues, and caregiver stress. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma and abuse.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach to therapy combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, mindfulness, solution focused, psycho-education, and psychodynamic counseling. I approach therapy from a person centered and strengths based perspective. Your treatment plan will be individualized to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek improved mental health. It is brave to take this step, and I am here to support you in a safe and understanding environment to empower you.
I am able to work with children, youth, teens, adults, older adults and couples.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Evalee is the most understanding and helpful therapist I have ever met with. She understands my needs and helps me find ways to get them resolved. She gives me the time and attention I need during our sessions! She is wonderful and I highly recommend her!
Evalee Smith is a jewel to find as a therapist in today's world. In just a few sessions she has given me a great set of tools to work with and her feedback on my concerns has reduced my anxiety tremendously and my depression has greatly lessened compared to what it was before. She is gentle with her approach but she quickly zooms in on what needs to be worked on instantly so in the 45 minutes I meet with her it feels very productive and leaves me wishing we had more time. I feel comfortable telling her my deepest pain while she listens you can feel her empathy and concern. When she gives me feedback it is encouraging and optimistic while holding me accountable. Evalee gives me hope for overcoming my issues and I look forward to working with her for as long as she will have me as a patient.
Evalee has helped me work through childhood trauma that has affected my adult relationships my whole life. She gives me tools to cope and techniques so I can live a healthier life with healthier relationships.

Evalee is phenomenal. She is everything you could want for a therapist.
I have been working with Evalee for a year now. Initially, it was to deal with a work crisis. She saw me through that and then some. She has helped me get to the root cause of behavioral issues and belief systems that are holding me back and threatening my health. She listens and always articulates exactly what I need to hear. She has helped me.
Evalee is extremely patient and understanding. Even though we’ve only gotten to work together through chat, I could tell how much care she puts into her work and patients just through messaging. She’s extremely helpful and I would recommend to anyone

Evalee is the 1st Therapist I have ever counseled with. I was extremely nervous, as this was all new to me. Not only did I instantly feel comfortable with Evalee, but I also felt someone was listening with zero judgement and she actually cared. Evalee really helped me open my mind to tools, resources and new ideas I had never thought of before. I am so thankful for finally finding some guidance, peace and understanding in my life, it's been a long time coming. Thank you Evalee!!

Listens to everything I say and provides feedback I can think and use for future situations
Evalee is wonderful. She consistently provides excellent insight and non-judgmental soundboarding. Could not ask for better.
I loved meeting you today. I think you are a great fit for me. I can't wait until next week. I scheduled for the morning AFTER I arrive in Maui. 1pm PST, 10am Hawaiian, 4pm your time lol! See you then. Thank you for encouraging me to go. I needed permission to be selfish and to take some healing time alone. Also, for teaching me the concept of re-framing what I'm telling myself, to be more supportive of myself, my self care and my inner spirit. See you next Wednesday!!
She is super kind and understanding but also checks you when you need it. She helped me a lot with teaching me new skills and with other things as well. I believe that her other patients are lucky to have someone so genuine and understanding to help them on their journey like she did with me. I really appreciate everything that she helped me through.
Evalee is punctual, she listens well, provides appropriate feedback. Asks questions I don't want to answer....which is the point of therapy. I appreciate her and her approach. Looking forward to more sessions.
Eva Lee has been a God send. She has taken a crisis on my life and allowed for me to be able to talk through it and make it manageable with goal setting.
I've been receiving therapy from Evalee for about a year now and she has always had an innate ability to walk the line between caring and supportive and practical and productive. In this way Evalee gives me the guidance to make real progress in my life while also having the confidence to actually try it.
Amazing! This is our 2nd session! Very satisfied.
Evalee, is always encouraging and has really helped me think through my current issues.
Kind and thoughtful
Evalee is patient, attentive, and focused. She has a calming energy that feels supportive, compassionate, and reassuring. I look forward to her grounding presence each week.
Evalee is a very good listener, and she is really on point with her exercises and techniques. I’ve had OCD and its accompanying quirks and anxiety for most of my life. I thought some of them were insurmountable. And I almost can’t believe how quickly I’ve made significant progress in such a short time. You have to do the work. But her guidance in regard to *what* to work on and *how* to work on it has been sensational. I went to her almost out of desperation, but I didn’t have much in the way of good expectations. I’ve never been so happy to report how wrong I was to be cynical. Evalee is utterly fantastic.
Evalee is receptive, compassionate, and skilled. She listens carefully and provides honest, nonjudgemental feedback. She is amazing and I'd recommend her to anyone.
Evalee has been wonderful. I was EXTREMELY lucky to have chosen her. She is kind, smart, and thoughtful. She’s also a great listener. Couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Evalee has been a great help. With her tools and resources, she has set me up for mental health success. Thank you for being there for me :)
I was seeing another therapist before Evalee on better help for a couple months and I've had 3 sessions with Evalee. Evalee has made me feel so much more comfortable opening up and makes me feel like she actually cares and is listening. She helps me come up with solutions to the problems in my life and helps me feel confident in my decisions. I still have a lot to work on but I feel like Evalee can really help me help myself

Evalee has been a very calming constant in my efforts to better my anxiety. She has a soothing presence and listens to me without any judgement. Evalee has given me practices that has been helpful to me throughout the week and not just in our weekly video calls. I also like filling out journal entries when I am having thoughts that need to be put down. It gives you an option to post it for your counselor to see. She always responds that she has read them and helps her understand. For some reason, it is nice knowing she takes the time to read my thoughts and hardship. Evalee has been a wonderful counselor that puts me at ease when we video call despite my awkwardness at times. I definitely recommend her.
Evalee is a fantastic listener. For real one of the good ones.
