Jessica Smith, LPC

Jessica Smith is an LPC - a Licensed Professional Counselor - practicing in Texas with 10 years of experience supporting people through major life and career transitions. She specializes in helping those who feel stretched thin by career demands, family responsibilities, and relationship expectations yet find themselves stuck or unfulfilled. Many of her clients are navigating returns to work after a break, career changes, grief or loss, divorce, or shifting family dynamics, and they often seek clarity, support, and a space where they can be truly heard.

Jessica guides clients to define meaningful goals and to align their daily choices with their values, helping them move forward with greater confidence and renewed purpose. Her approach blends client-centered therapy with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Jungian therapy, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused work, tailoring each plan to the needs and strengths of the individual.

She brings empathy, warmth, and a measured sense of humor to the therapeutic relationship, encouraging honesty and authenticity as the foundation for growth and self-discovery. Jessica also addresses a wide range of specific concerns including relationship and blended family issues, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and control problems, communication difficulties, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, jealousy, life purpose and midlife questions, and money and financial stress.

Jessica’s practice emphasizes practical strategies and deeper exploration in equal measure, helping clients process emotions, recognize unhelpful patterns, and build the resilience needed to navigate life’s transitions. She integrates coaching elements for clients focused on career and life direction, supporting them to rebuild confidence and take purposeful steps toward the life they envision.
