Specialist care by secure video from anywhere in the Austin area, with the same therapists who see clients in our Plano office.
Austin has plenty of therapists, and long waitlists for the ones who specialize. Layers Counseling Specialists offers secure video therapy to Austin adults, students and families with specialists in OCD, anxiety, ADHD, autism, avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) and trauma. Many of the Austin clients we see are UT students and busy professionals with intrusive thoughts, panic, perfectionism, or ADHD or autism recognized later in life. We use treatments with strong research behind them, like exposure and response prevention (ERP) for OCD. We don’t have an Austin office; every session is online.
We specialize in OCD (including ERP and I-CBT), anxiety disorders, ADHD, autism, ARFID, eating disorders, and trauma, working with children as young as 3, teens, and adults.
Sessions happen by secure, private video from anywhere in Texas, whether that’s an apartment near campus, a home office in Round Rock, or your kitchen table in Cedar Park. All you need is a private space and an internet connection, and a phone or tablet works fine.
Sessions fit around class and work, including evenings, and you can join from home, a quiet office or a parked car. Families with kids and teens are welcome too, and SPACE parent coaching works especially well online.

Yes. Our neurodiversity-affirming therapists help adults make sense of a late diagnosis, ease burnout and build routines that fit how their brain works. If you’re looking for a formal diagnostic evaluation, ask about it on your free consult and we’ll talk through your options.
For many people, yes. Research on video-based CBT and ERP shows results similar to in-person care for anxiety and OCD, and meeting from home can make it easier to keep going week after week.
We’re a private-pay practice, so we don’t send your information to an insurance company. We accept HSA and FSA cards and offer two fee levels: our specialists and our focused clinicians, who are supervised by specialists and cost less. A limited number of sliding-scale spots are available too.
Yes. ERP works well by video because you practice where the OCD shows up. Your therapist guides exposures in real time and helps you plan practice between sessions.
