I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and board-approved supervisor in Texas. I received my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2017 from The University of Texas at Tyler. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the effects of past experiences that continue to show up in the present.

In my work, I focus on creating a space that feels steady, supportive, and nonjudgmental. Many of the people I work with aren’t always sure where to start. They may just know that something feels off or overwhelming. Together, we begin to make sense of those experiences in a way that feels more manageable.

Throughout the past two decades, I have dedicated my career to working with young individuals and their families within the educational environment, serving as both an educator and a school counselor. Currently, I hold the position of a licensed professional counselor, where I continue to support and guide individuals on their journeys.

My academic credentials were earned at Stephen F. Austin State University, where I developed a strong foundation in counseling principles and practices. I am deeply passionate about empowering individuals to discover their purpose, experience healing, and embrace their true identity in Christ. My commitment to supporting the personal and spiritual growth of those I work with is at the core of my professional philosophy.

I describe myself as a “hope dealer” with a passion for mental health. Over the past six years, I’ve worked with TDCJ, nonprofits, and juvenile justice systems, gaining experience in abuse and neglect, trauma, substance misuse, anger management, recovery support, and women’s and veterans’ issues.

I provide Mental Health Counseling, Substance Misuse Counseling, Anger Management services, Trauma-Informed Care, Drug & Alcohol Screenings, Assessments, Referrals, SASSIs, and DOT Assessments.

Grounded in ethics, creativity, and compassion, my approach feels like a conversation at your kitchen table—supportive, safe, and nonjudgmental. I walk with you step by step as you heal, grow, and reclaim hope.

I have been a therapist for 17 years and have worked children and adults of all ages. I find joy in working with others reach their goals, manage life, and find peace.

Partnering with YOU to become your best self is my professional goal. I'm passionate about utilizing over 20 years of experience to assist you in gaining insight into barriers and developing a healthier mindset that will empower you to master proven productive skills for real change and growth.

I’m Layne Smith, an LPC-S licensed in Texas with an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Texas at Tyler & 8 years of clinical experience. I offer a person-centered, goal-oriented approach tailored to each client’s strengths & goals. I provide both in-person and telehealth sessions.

I bring years of experience to my work with individuals and families struggling with mental health challenges. I have worked exclusively in outpatient mental health since completing my studies, and I am deeply committed to empowering my clients to thrive. As a mother of five children - including one who passed at a young age - and a bonus child, I understand firsthand the important role that mental health plays in our overall well-being and happiness.

To say "things aren't always easy" is often an understatement. Sometimes things are more than hard, and may have been piling up for a while. Whether you're battling depression, anxiety, grief, or changes in life, I'm here to help. I've worked with children, teens and adults in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, where they work to sort out their struggles. I have seen the damage trauma can do to relationships, but have also seen the power in connecting with others.

I believe it is important for clients to find a counselor that fits their personality. I combine effective research based approaches with a warm, friendly, southern personality. There is almost always laughter somewhere in my sessions, even on the tough days. Client's should leave counseling sessions with a feeling of being lighter, understood, and valued.

Life is hard and we all face challenges that can feel too big to handle on our own. Luckily you don't have to walk through these challenges alone.

Hi! I'm Kelsey! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Texas. I received my Bachelor's degree in Social Work from The University of Texas at Austin and my Master's degree in Social Work from The University of Texas at San Antonio. I enjoy working with adults who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, difficult life transitions, relationship or family challenges, or are navigating periods of uncertainty and seeking support as they move forward. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space where you feel comfortable being yourself and talking openly about what you're experiencing.

You have probably been carrying more than you let on, and somewhere along the way, just getting through the day became the goal. I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, family stress, and life transitions that feel bigger than expected. I also support parents who are looking for help for a child or teenager who is struggling to find their footing. Whatever brings you here, my goal is to make sure you feel genuinely heard from the very first conversation.
