Harmony Smith, M.Ed., LPC Associate
Supervised by Lesley Lanier Smith, LPC-S, RYT
Hello! My name is Harmony and I am a licensed Professional Counselor Associate in Texas. I am a warm hearted, idealistic, neurospicy and highly sensitive human, as well as a devoted mother and partner who leads with love.
I envision a world where every person can embrace their authentic selves, unapologetically while leading a holistically healthy life that fulfills their potential. Unfortunately, life can present obstacles that may get in the way of this, and you deserve support in crafting the life you desire.
I strive to provide a safe and compassionate space for survivors like you to process your experiences and work through challenges. I am here to support you in strengthening your relationship with yourself and others, so you can live more fully and freely. Together, we can navigate your unique journey toward healing and harmony.

I believe
Every human deserves to live freely and authentically and I am committed to supporting those who are searching for the tools to do so.
Our identities are important parts of who we are and each person is entitled to naming and celebrating them as they choose.
Each brain works differently and I support folks in learning to work with their brain to develop habits and a lifestyle that aligns with them and their goals.
In the power and importance of community in collective healing and liberation.
harmony’s therapeutic approach
My approach to therapy is holistic, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. As a therapist, I am grounded in a humanistic/existentialist philosophy, which means that I believe you are the expert of your own life, and I am here to guide and support you.
I offer somatic (body-based), experiential and mindfulness based approaches, rooted in my ongoing training in sensorimotor psychotherapy (SP), yoga, nervous system healing, eye movement, desensitization, and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, and African Diasporic traditions of storytelling and holistic healing.
My ultimate goal is to support you in finding greater presence, balance, and grounding so you can show up in your life and relationships as your best self.
