Find a therapist in San Antonio, TX — covered by insurance

Hi, My name is Dallas Smeltser and I am a licensed professional counselor-supervisor. I am here to help provide you with encouragement and support. I've spent over 30 years doing this work — not because it's easy, but because it matters. My clients tend to be people who are dealing with something heavy and real: loss, trauma, depression, substance use, or the kind of slow-burning stress that builds until something breaks. Many of them are men who never saw themselves as 'therapy people,' and I respect that. I don't push, and I don't project. I show up, I listen, and I help you figure out what actually needs to change — and how to change it.

Clients should know that I am a dedicated and compassionate mental health professional committed to providing a safe, inclusive, and affirming space for healing and growth. With expertise in psychotherapy, neurodivergence, trauma, and vocational rehabilitation, I take a holistic and client-centered approach, tailoring each session to individual needs.

I believe in empowering clients by helping them develop self-awareness, resilience, and practical coping strategies. My work is rooted in evidence-based techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). I am especially passionate about supporting neurodivergent individuals, the LGBTQIA+ community, and those facing life transitions, trauma, or career challenges.

Above all, I value authenticity, collaboration, and creating a non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported on their journey toward mental wellness.

Hi, I'm Michelle, a psychiatric nurse practitioner passionate about supporting individuals on their mental health journey. I believe in creating safe, compassionate space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Whether you're facing a new challenge or managing a long-standing condition, I'm here to walk alongside you with care and expertise.

UT Tyler graduate with my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2022. I've seen clients ranging from age 11 to 72. I completed my internship at Smith County Probation for two semesters and have been working at HopeLink Counseling, a group private practice, for over 3 years.

Thank you for stopping by! I am excited to get to know you and begin this beautiful journey of growth. Whether you are starting a new journey or you’re looking to pick up where you left off, I’m glad you stopped by!

It is my passion to work with people, as they challenge themselves to grow and evolve. Many of us experience challenging feelings of depression, anxiety, relationship stress, and stress of dealing with the many transitions of life. At times, these challenging feelings can make us feel alone or isolated from our communities of love and support. I believe that I am here to walk alongside you and provide insight and support as you begin to see yourself grow and reach the goals that you set for yourself. I primarily work from a narrative perspective, but I pull from many different approaches to create a safe and efficient environment for my clients to explore and reflect on themselves and their situations.

I've been working with individuals and families for about 3 years. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas, and I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Tarleton State University. I have a good understanding of neurodivergent needs in both adolescents and adults, and I’ve also helped people manage mood disorders, anxiety, and self-harm. As a proud member of the LGBTQI+ community, I bring my personal experience and insights to my work with queer clients.

You carry things most people never see — the weight of what happened, the part of you that stays on

guard even when you're safe, the quiet exhaustion of holding it together for everyone else. For many

Black and African American adults, there's an added expectation to simply be strong and keep going.

Therapy with me is where you finally get to set that down. We work through trauma, PTSD, and the

stress that builds up when you've never had room to process it — so you can feel steady, present, and

like yourself again.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Austin, Texas, I provide trauma-informed, person-centered care that is both compassionate and practical. While I believe in taking time to process your experiences, I also work collaboratively with you to identify strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful change that aligns with your values.

I served over 15 years in the military and had the opportunity to travel and work with remarkable individuals around the world. During my service, I was fortunate to help military members and their families through a wide range of professional and personal issues. These experiences not only enriched my life but also fueled my sense of adventure. Today, I continue to explore the outdoors and new places with my family.
