Families in Little Elm often tell us they spent months looking for someone who really understood what their child, or they themselves, were going through. Layers Counseling Specialists is a small practice where every therapist specializes, and we work with children, teens, and adults on OCD, anxiety, ADHD, autism, avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), and trauma. Maybe it’s constant reassurance-seeking, a food list that keeps shrinking, or panic that seems to come out of nowhere. These are exactly the kinds of struggles we focus on, using approaches with strong research behind them, at a pace that feels doable.
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.

From Little Elm, our office at 8105 Rasor Blvd., Suite 206 is about 20 to 25 minutes away by the Sam Rayburn Tollway (State Highway 121) or Eldorado Parkway, in far north Plano near the Dallas North Tollway. Parking is free. If the drive doesn’t fit your week, every service we offer is also available by secure video anywhere in Texas.
Many Little Elm families mix in-person sessions with online ones, especially for teens with busy school schedules. We offer evening appointments. For younger children we use play-based approaches with parents involved, and for a child who won’t come to therapy, our parent-based program, SPACE, works entirely through you and is fully online.

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.
