Vicki Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas who offers online counseling through her private practice. She welcomes clients of all ages and provides individual, couples, and family counseling. Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether you’re dealing with relationship struggles, life transitions, anxiety, depression, stress, grief, or loss—and you don’t have to face it alone. Vicki’s goal is to help you find practical ways to cope, feel better, and function more fully in your day-to-day life. Sessions take place in a relaxed, supportive, and warm environment—all from the comfort of your own home.
Vicki often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, you’ll work on recognizing unhelpful thought patterns and learning how to replace them with healthier ones that lead to more balanced emotions and positive changes. Her approach is friendly, encouraging, and compassionate—while also knowing when to gently challenge you to help create real growth.
With 30 years of experience working in public schools, Vicki has worked with diverse populations facing a wide range of personal challenges. She specializes in working with adolescents but has experience supporting clients of all ages. She is comfortable navigating unexpected issues as they arise and believes in meeting clients where they are, going with the flow when needed, and always keeping the focus on what will best support your healing and growth.
