About

SABRINA SMITH, MSSW

Hello! I’m Sabrina & I’m so glad that you are here!

Before I dive into the details about who I am (because, let's face it, yawn!), I’d love to share how I came to name my business, “Evolti LLC.” Evolti is derived from the Italian word, Evolversi, which means to evolve, to develop, to progress…

It is also the best word to perfectly encapsulate my view on life: a journey filled with endless opportunities to learn, to evolve, and to become the best version of ourselves. By developing deeper self-awareness, embracing change, and overcoming even the most challenging of obstacles, we can achieve a greater sense of fulfillment and purpose in life.

Since I was a child, I knew that I was destined to be in a career that allowed me the opportunity to support others. I cycled between wanting to be a teacher, a lawyer, and a criminal profiler, until landing on the role that I’ve had for more than a decade - a social worker and psychotherapist. I earned a Master’s of Science in Social Work (MSSW - Clinical Social Work Concentration) degree from The University of Texas at Austin and continue to maintain my Clinical Social Work & Supervisor license in the State of Texas.

In 2022, after years of running a private practice, I decided to take a bold leap - I jumped head first into a completely new role, putting trust in myself and the universe to guide me toward a more fulfilling, exciting, and joy-filled life. It wasn’t easy and certainly didn’t come without its fair share of insecurity, uncertainty, and some serious obstacles (even a few self-inflicted ones).

That bold leap involved stepping back from my practice practice and walking into the world of corporate America - where I’ve used my psychology and social work background to help organizations build winning teams and maintain supportive, collaborative, and person-centered cultures.

Fast forward to today…my inner “helper” still calls to me. After much consideration and many hours of reflection, I took yet another bold leap in 2024 and also added “Transformational Coach” to my list of roles. And that is where I find myself today - a psychotherapist, an organizational development consultant, and a transformational coach.

My Method

01

Deep Listening

I strive to create a safe space where you can be your authentic self. Through active and attentive listening, even to the messages that are unspoken, we achieve deeper insights about who you are.

02

Deep Exploration

By exploring your core values, limiting beliefs, unconscious patterns, motivations, and true desires, we leverage your deeper self-awareness to enable you to attain more meaningful personal growth.

03

Deep Evolution

By embracing the journey of life-long learning and self-discovery, we see your continual evolution as a reflection of your commitment to yourself and to the life you want to live.
