A little bit more about me
Infinity Growth Practice specializing in providing psychotherapy for elite college and professional athletes as well who struggle with focus, addiction, and emotional regulation. With advanced training in Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), I also support adults with ADHD and attachment challenges, helping them to understand themselves in a new way along with breaking through emotional barriers. My work extends to high performers and entrepreneurs navigating self-worth struggles, anxiety, and the pressures of success.
My approach to therapy is client-centered and strength-based, which comes from many different theory bases for psychotherapy in aiming to understand the individual needs of our clients. I utilize a variety of approaches to meet the needs of our clients such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Based and Relaxation Training. I am also trained in Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT-Level 2), Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP-Level 2, pursuing Level 3), Community Reinforcement Approach and Family Training (CRAFT), and Circle of Security Parenting (COSP).

About Maren Londahl-Smidt, LCSW, LCAS
Helping You Perform at Your Best-In Sport, Business, and Life
Welcome to Infinity Growth Practice, where I specialize in working with elite athletes, entrepreneurs, college students, and high achievers to help them overcome obstacles and unlock their full potential. With over 11 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, attachment issues, addiction, and confidence struggles.
Throughout my career, I have worked in various settings, including medical facilities, outpatient therapy, community mental health, and now private practice, providing support to individuals from all walks of life. My approach is centered on you, the client, and is strength-based, drawing from evidence-based therapies tailored to meet your unique needs.
I hold a Master's in Social Work from NC State University and a Master's in Service Agency Counseling from UNC Pembroke. My journey to becoming a therapist was not a direct path, but rather a winding road filled with valuable lessons that I now use to help others break through barriers and pave a new way forward.
When I'm not in therapy sessions, you can find me indulging in my passion for riding and showing horses, spending time with my dogs, running, traveling, and enjoying live music. And, to top it all off, I am an unwavering Wolfpack fan!

Effective January 1, 2022, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services, including psychotherapy.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency services.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service. You can also ask your health care provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises

Both! Currently I am offering telehealth and in-person appointments.

I offer a no cost, no obligation 20 minute connection call to help both us determine if we would be a good “fit”. You can this through my website by selecting “request appointment” or send a message through “contact me”. If for some reason we are not a good fit, I will try my best to provide you with trusted referral options. This is also a great time to ask any questions you may have!
-
It’s very simple! All you need is a device with a camera and internet connection. I recommend using google chrome and being connected to wifi, not cell data. Before our first appointment, I will send you the necessary forms to complete and I will send you a link to join your secure, telehealth appointment. I am happy to answer any questions you may have!

All clients are required to give 24 hours notification by email, text or voice mail for cancellations, or are otherwise considered “late cancellations.” For late cancellations, clients are responsible for payment of full session fee at the clinicianʼs discretion.
A fee is never charged if the clinician is unable to attend sessions (i.e. injury or illness, or practitioner time off). Clients are never held responsible to pay for a cancelled appointment when the clinician/practitioner is unavailable to meet for any reason.
