Hello! I have a Masters of Education in Counseling and Human Development and have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2002, with Supervisory status (2020). I am also a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS) and have been since 1993. I am dedicated to fostering peace, respect, and healing within individuals and families. I am nurturing, patient and non-judgmental to help create a supportive environment where challenges can be addressed. I am a vocal advocate for children, teenagers, and adults. I have worked in psychiatric hospitals, RTC's, with TYC, private practice (all ages for individuals and families) and MHMR (focus on crisis counseling for children and teenagers). Trauma, depression, anxiety, crisis, and grief are some of my speciality areas.

Feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed? You don’t have to face it alone. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, and Registered Play Therapist, helping children, teens, and adults navigate life’s challenges with care and understanding.

Through play therapy, children find a safe way to express, process, and heal. Teens and adults receive guidance for trauma, anxiety, and major life transitions. My approach is compassionate, individualized, and focused on helping you move forward with confidence.

I bring experience from juvenile and community settings—including Webb County Youth Village Detention Center, Webb County Treatment Program, United Independent School District, and PILLAR—where I’ve supported clients and mentored clinicians.

Together, we can create a space where you or your child feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to grow.

Joyce Thomas Campbell

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


I'm Dr. Joyce Thomas-Campbell, and I've spent more than 40 years walking alongside people through some of life's most tender and difficult seasons. My career has taken me from directing counseling and student support programs at Paul Quinn College, to leading Communities in Schools, to years of counseling at Texas State Technical College. Along the way, I also founded Empowering a Better You, because I believe deeply that everyone has the capacity to grow into a stronger, fuller version of themselves.

What all those years have taught me is simple: people don't need to be fixed, they need to be heard. I bring warmth, honesty, and a good deal of lived wisdom to every conversation. I'm the kind of person who will listen closely, tell you the truth kindly, and stay in your corner. Outside of my work, I'm a wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, so I understand family, love, loss, and resilience not just as a counselor but as someone who has lived it. I also stay current with the latest in the field through ongoing training each year, because you deserve care that's both seasoned and up to date.

You might look like you're holding it all together on the outside while feeling exhausted, anxious, disconnected, or overwhelmed on the inside. Maybe you've spent so much time taking care of everyone else that you've stopped checking in with yourself. Or maybe life changed unexpectedly, and you're trying to figure out who you are now.

If that sounds familiar, you're not alone.

I work with children, teens, adults, couples, families, veterans, first responders, and LGBTQ+ individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, major life transitions, and the stress that comes from simply trying to keep up. My goal isn't to tell you how to live your life. It's to help you understand yourself more deeply, quiet the constant mental noise, and feel more confident in the choices you make.

Clients often tell me they appreciate that I'm easy to talk to, calm, honest, and genuine. Therapy with me is a place where you don't have to have it all figured out. You can show up exactly as you are, and we'll take it one step at a time.

Volunteering has been vital to me since my teenage years; therefore, it was fitting that I choose therapy as my career. After completing a master's in counseling, I volunteered at Catholic Charities (Houston) to complete my hours for the license. In addition to CBT, DBT, and CPT, I have also added EMDR, among others, to complement my experience and desire for growth.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Laredo, TX

Finding family therapists in Laredo starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, and relationship patterns across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match the concerns you want to address.

In a mid-sized city like Laredo, your search may include therapists with local offices as well as therapists who offer virtual appointments across Texas. Virtual care can expand your options if you need more scheduling flexibility or want to include family members in different locations. Family sessions may involve the full family, smaller groups, or individual members, depending on the goals of care. Before booking, read therapist bios to understand how each therapist structures sessions, who they typically work with, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.

Therapy in Laredo can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists, review upfront cost estimates, and see who is accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for your specific plan on Headway before booking. You can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
