Michaela Smith

Michaela Smith, MSW has worked in addiction treatment since 2020, driven by a commitment to challenge the stigma that labels mental health and substance use struggles as criminal behavior rather than medical conditions. She holds a Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice and a Master of Social Work. 

Michaela is trained in LS/CMI, Moral Reconation Therapy, CBT, DBT, and trauma‑informed, strengths‑based care. Areas of focus for her include treating anxiety, addiction, trauma, anger, and major life transitions. A two‑time University of Georgia graduate and Phi Alpha Honor Society member, she is known for his honesty, humor, and down‑to‑earth approach.

Michael holds a BS in Psychology and an MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and he is a National Certified Counselor and ACA member. He specializes in Person‑Centered and CBT approaches and believes in meeting each client exactly where they are.

Nate Bosway

Nate Bosway, NCC, MS, CMHC, BS discovered his passion for behavioral health by accident while completing clinical hours at a recovery IOP, where he quickly connected with individuals facing addiction and serious mental illness. That experience reshaped his understanding of the link between mental health and substance use and inspired his career path. Nate holds a BS in Psychology and Neuroscience from Miami University and an MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Wake Forest. He integrates CBT and existential approaches to help clients build meaning, purpose, and personal agency. Outside of work, he enjoys gaming, horror and fantasy media, anime, and spending time with his husband and their pets.

Erik Bates

Erik Bates, LCSW My clinical experience and areas of focus include mental health, substance use disorders, and dual diagnosis treatment, with an emphasis on helping individuals navigate the complex relationship between emotional wellbeing and behavioral health challenges.

I utilize an eclectic and individualized approach to treatment, primarily drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Gestalt Therapy, Motivational Interviewing (MI), mindfulness-based interventions, and DBT-informed skills training to help clients build insight, strengthen coping strategies, and create meaningful change.

I chose this field because I have always been passionate about helping people overcome challenges, recognize their strengths, and create meaningful changes that improve their lives.
