I enjoy working with people who struggle with lack of motivation, low self-esteem, self-doubt, and feelings of worthlessness. I enjoy helping challenge negative self-talk and learning distortions.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience working as a therapist and life coach. My experience includes but not limited to working with clients with a wide range of concerns: anger management, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationships, and self-esteem. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with compassion and respect. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and holistic, using integrative approaches, such as mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral, and psychodynamic therapies. I am client-centered, and our sessions and treatment plan are tailored to address your specific needs.

Hey there! Are you feeling a little overwhelmed lately? You’re not alone. Maybe you’ve been juggling a million things, second-guessing yourself, or trying to keep everyone else happy while quietly burning out. If that sounds familiar, I see you and I’d love to help. I work with millennials, professionals and creatives who are ready to stop running on autopilot and start feeling more connected, calm, and confident in their own skin. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, going through a big life transition, struggling with boundaries, or just feeling “off,” we’ll work together to make sense of it and create space for something new. In our sessions, you can expect compassion, curiosity, and maybe even a little humor when it fits. I use an integrative approach rooted in evidence-based practices like CBT, but I also bring creativity and flexibility into the process because therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither are you. This is your space to breathe, reflect, and grow. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to show up and we’ll take it from there, together.

Having worked in the educational field for many years, I chose to go into to counseling in order to help others who are in need of understanding, support and encouragement.

My aim is help others learn how to manage and go forward with all they have experienced and encountered.

I specialize in helping individuals feel grounded, confident and less overwhelmed. Therapy with me focuses on reducing anxiety and depression, healing trauma patterns, strengthening self-trust, and improving communication, boundaries, and relationships so you can move out of survival mode and into a life that feels steady, aligned. This is a compassionate space for real change. My path into therapy began with a truth I’ve witnessed repeatedly—people can grow through even the most difficult seasons. Working across diverse mental health settings revealed the resilience individuals carry, even when they feel uncertain or stuck. Those experiences shaped my grounded, practical approach. I believe healing begins when you feel truly seen and supported. In private practice, I help clients work through anxiety, depression, self-doubt, trauma, and relationship challenges. Together, we slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and create changes that feel steady and sustainable. My goal is to help you feel balanced, confident, and deeply connected to yourself and others. You don’t need the perfect words or a clear plan to begin therapy. Just show up as you are—I’ll meet you there. My style is warm, collaborative, and straightforward. I listen carefully, ask meaningful questions, and offer practical tools to help you understand your patterns and respond with intention. I value authenticity over formality and bring honesty—and at times humor—when it serves the work. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most, creating small, meaningful shifts that build lasting change. You’ll have space to reflect, practice new skills, and feel consistently supported. My hope is that you leave each session feeling clearer, lighter, and equipped with tools you can use immediately.

I am an EMDR-certified, licensed therapist with a holistic, integrative approach to healing. I believe that most people don’t come to therapy because they are “broken,” but because at some point in life, they feel stuck—emotionally, relationally, professionally, or spiritually. My role is to help clients understand what’s keeping them stuck and support them in moving forward with clarity and confidence. I meet clients where they are, honoring their lived experiences while gently helping them build the insight, skills, and emotional regulation needed for meaningful change. I believe people can and do change when they receive adequate, appropriate, and compassionate support. Therapy is not about fixing who you are—it’s about reconnecting you to your capacity to heal, adapt, and grow.

Greetings, I'm Anita Smith! If this is your first time seeking help, I would like to commend you for your courage, and if you have had therapy before, I hope I say something that connects for you. I'm curious to know what brought you here and what you would like to get out of therapy? I specialize in helping individuals cope with the different kinds of losses: 1) Primary losses - the death of a loved one, friend or pet, break-up, separation, divorce, loss of job, loss of money, the victim of a crime and losses due to Covid19 2)Secondary losses - moving, illness, changes and success; 3) Limbo losses - Covid 19, waiting for the outcome of a test result, a lawsuit, separation, not knowing the outcome; 4) Complicated losses - primary, secondary and limbo losses going on at the same time. The reactions to loss could be feeling of anxiety, depression, helpless, fearful, emptiness, despair, pessimistic, irritability, anger, guilty, restlessness, loss of concentration, hope, motivation, energy, change in appetite, sleep pattern and a tendency to be more fatigued and error prone. Are you experiencing any of those feelings? I also work with individuals who desire prayer before our sessions. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas for 25+ years, a National Certified Counselor (NCC) for 35+ years, and a Board Certified Coach (BCC) for 10 years.

I am a licensed professional counselor with 4 years of experience with a passion for helping individuals and couples navigate life's challenges. With four years of experience specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused therapy, I am dedicated to providing a supportive and collaborative environment for my clients. I love working with clients from all ages and backgrounds. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their life.

I'm a therapist and I work with people who have mixed anxiety and depression. Over time, I've noticed a few patterns my client's have in common. See if this fits: you're tired of being your own worst critic. Maybe you've achieved what you're "supposed to" but feel unfulfilled. Or maybe you're stuck while others seem to move forward easily. Either way, you're harder on yourself than anyone else would be. Your mind won't quiet down at night but feels foggy during the day. Simple tasks pile up because they feel overwhelming. You put things off, then beat yourself up for procrastinating. Some days motivation is nonexistent. Other days you're anxious about everything. You've tried apps, routines, and productivity systems. Nothing works long-term because you're working against yourself. You avoid important things because failure feels terrifying. Then you criticize yourself for avoiding them. The cycle keeps repeating. Whether you're a perfectionist or feel like you're falling behind, the internal commentary is harsh. Your relationships suffer because you're distracted by self-judgment. Therapy helps you change that inner dialogue. Learning to treat yourself with basic kindness isn't self-indulgent—it's practical. You don't have to be your own obstacle.
