I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Houston. I specialize in helping adults and older adults navigate workplace stress, family challenges, and emotional wellbeing. My areas of focus include career burnout, work-life balance, anxiety, depression, intimate partner violence, divorce, caregiving stress, and cross-cultural adjustment.

I believe every person carries an inner strength that can be uncovered and nurtured. In therapy, I provide a safe, compassionate space where you can share your story, build resilience, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

My therapy style is collaborative, compassionate, and client-centered. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I integrate evidence-based approaches with curiosity and flexibility, tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs and goals. I value authenticity, practical tools, and meaningful insight to support lasting change.

Hi there! I am Spenser Crain, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor supporting individuals living across Texas :)

I was born and raised in Texas before studying psychology and sociology at Chapman University in Orange, California. I received my Masters of Art in Counseling from St Edward’s University In Austin, Texas.

I work with teens, adults, and older adults who are dealing with trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, and the hard work of trying to move forward when life feels off track. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed by cravings, guilt, shame, relationship strain, or old patterns they are ready to break. Sometimes sobriety is just the beginning, and the deeper work is learning how to rebuild trust, manage emotions, and put life back together in a healthier way.

Life can look perfectly fine on the outside while feeling overwhelming underneath. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Whether you're feeling stuck, constantly overthinking, burned out, or repeating patterns you can't seem to break, therapy can be a place to finally make sense of what's going on.

I bring curiosity, honesty, and practical insight into every session. Rather than giving generic advice or simply asking, "How does that make you feel?" we'll work together to understand what's keeping you stuck, identify what's actually changeable, and build strategies that fit your life. I'll challenge you when it's helpful, support you when it's needed, and create a space where you can be completely yourself without worrying about being judged or getting it "right."

Are you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, or struggling to find balance in your daily life? You do not have to navigate it alone. I provide compassionate, personalized mental health care in a supportive and judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns they do not fully understand, or exhausted from carrying challenges on their own for too long. Whether you are navigating trauma, depression, ADHD, relationship difficulties, family conflict, or a major life transition, therapy can provide a space to slow down, gain clarity, and reconnect with yourself.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in curiosity rather than judgment. Together, we will explore the experiences, emotions, and patterns that may be contributing to your current struggles while building practical tools to help you move forward. I believe meaningful change begins with greater self-awareness, and that healing happens when people feel seen, understood, and supported.

My goal is to create a space where you can show up authentically, make sense of your experiences, strengthen your coping skills, and develop a deeper sense of confidence in yourself and your relationships.
