Johanna J SmithJohanna J. Smith, MA, LPC, combines her passionate love of children, horses and history in Star Gazer, the Horse Who Loved History. Ms. Smith's love of horses dates back to her childhood experiences as an accomplished equestrian in Southern Pines, Noth Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State with a BS in English, Ms. Smith earned a master's degree in psychology from the University of West Georgia. She then moved to Sierra Leone, West Africa, where she taught tribal children in the town of Koribundo. Her time in Sierra Leone allowed Ms. Smith to observe first hand how absolute poverty and lack of education fosters conflict between nations. Ms. Smith also lived in Rabat Morocco where she taught English as a second language. Ms. Smith maintains a private psychotherapy practice for children and adults close to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
