Central Texas sits between the big metros, and specialty mental health care often feels just out of reach. Whether you're in Waco, Temple, Killeen, Belton, College Station, or Bryan, finding a therapist with deep training in OCD, ARFID, autism, or anxiety disorders usually means long waitlists or a drive to Austin or Dallas. Online therapy with Layers Counseling Specialists brings that expertise to you. You meet by secure video with the same specialist clinicians our Plano families see, each one focused on a specific area like OCD (using ERP and I-CBT), anxiety and panic, ADHD, autism, ARFID, or trauma.
We specialize in OCD (including ERP and I-CBT), anxiety disorders, ADHD, autism, ARFID, eating disorders, and trauma — for children as young as 3, teens, and adults.
There's no drive at all. Sessions happen by secure, HIPAA-compliant video wherever you are, whether that's a quiet room at home in Temple, an apartment near campus in College Station, or base housing around Killeen. All you need is a private space and an internet connection, and a phone or tablet works just fine. And if you're ever up in Dallas-Fort Worth, our Plano office at 8105 Rasor Blvd., Suite 206 is always open to you.
Central Texas life comes with its own rhythms, and we work around them. Military families near Killeen juggle deployments, shift schedules, and moves, and online sessions keep therapy steady through all of it, anywhere in Texas. College students at Baylor, Texas A&M, and beyond often hit a wall of anxiety, OCD, or perfectionism mid-semester, and video sessions fit neatly between classes. And for families in Waco, Temple, and the smaller towns around them, our parent-based SPACE program supports an anxious child entirely through you, with no buy-in needed from your child at all.
It is. Studies consistently show that telehealth ERP for OCD and video-based treatment for anxiety work just as well as in-person sessions. What matters most is working with a clinician trained in the right approach, and online sessions mean you can start with a true specialist in days instead of waiting months for an opening nearby.
All of them. Our clinicians are licensed in Texas, so we can meet with anyone in the state by secure video, including Waco, Temple, Killeen, Belton, Copperas Cove, College Station, Bryan, and every town in between. If you live in Texas, we can work with you.
Yes, and online care is actually a great fit for military life. Sessions stay steady through schedule changes and time apart, and as long as you're anywhere in Texas, nothing about your care changes when you move. If a move ever takes you out of state, we'll help you transition smoothly to a specialist there.
We do, and we love working with students. Anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and perfectionism are some of the most common reasons students reach out to us, and video sessions fit neatly around class schedules. You can meet from your apartment, your dorm, or anywhere private.
Yes, from young children through teens and adults. Our child specialists adapt playful, developmentally appropriate approaches for video, and parents stay closely involved. If your child is too anxious to attend sessions at all, our parent-based SPACE program works entirely through you, fully online.
We're a private-pay practice, and we provide superbills you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement. We offer two pricing tiers, experienced specialists and lower-cost supervised clinicians, plus sliding-scale options to make care more accessible. Getting started is easy. Book a free 15-minute video consultation with the clinician you'd actually work with, and if it feels like a good fit, your first session can often happen within the week.
