Hello! My name is Paige Smith and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate at Texas Counseling Center in Pearland under the supervision of Nate Smith, Ph.D., LPC-S. In therapy settings, I believe it is best to work collaboratively with individuals, families, and couples to create a safe and growth-oriented space.
My theoretical approach is integral, including Person-centered, Internal Family Systems, (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). Because every individual is unique, I adjust my approach to serve clients of all backgrounds. I am passionate about working with children ages 12 and up, adults, couples, and families.
Areas of Specialty:
- Young adults
- Teenagers
- Couples/Relationship Issues
- LGBTQIA+ Issues
- Life transitions
- Depression and Anxiety
- Stress management
- Narcissistic Abuse
Outside of the session, I love staying active, spending quality time with friends and family, and reading at coffee shops.
Pursuing therapy is the first step to a new beginning. I appreciate your bravery in reaching out for help and I cannot wait to collaborate with you on your mental health journey!
