About Hailey
Hailey B. Smith, PhD, LPC (TX & SC), NCC, PMH-C
About Me:
Hi! I’m Hailey, a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to supporting Millennial and GenZ teens, adults, and couples. As a work-from-home mom and wife, I understand the challenges of juggling family responsibilities while often putting your own needs aside. This personal journey inspired me to offer counseling services to those struggling with finding a balance between family life and self-care. I’m passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate life transitions, relationship issues, family-of-origin dynamics—including setting healthy boundaries—parenting challenges, and maternal and postpartum concerns. My goal is to help you find the balance and harmony you deserve in your life.
I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Texas. Throughout my graduate studies, I specialized in Higher Education/College Counseling as well as Couple and Family Counseling, deepening my commitment to supporting Millennial and Gen Z adolescents, adults, and couples. Additionally, I am a Certified Perinatal Mental Health Counselor (PMH-C), a distinction earned through Postpartum Support International, reflecting my expertise in addressing the unique mental health needs of individuals during pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood.
My clinical experiences focuses on supporting BIPOC clients in a nonjudgmental, safe, and empathetic environment. Your safety in our therapeutic relationship is my top priority and I will strive to create a space where you can freely share your concerns. I believe in the power of collaboration and aim to empower you throughout your therapeutic journey.
Thank you for allowing me be part of your mental health journey. I’m honored to learn more about you and look forward to helping you navigate life's challenges and achieve personal growth.

On a personal note!
Alright, a little bit about me (because I think I’m pretty cool too! LOL). I’m a mom to both human and fur babies, a wife, daughter, sister, and a devoted friend. But most importantly, I’m just a fellow human trying to make it through life with as much excitement, fun, and adventure as possible.
Speaking of adventure, I love traveling and attending sporting events. In the fall, you’ll find me glued to the couch watching NCAA Football, and come spring, I'm all about NCAA gymnastics. As a South Carolina native, I proudly bleed Orange and Purple—Go Tigers! and I had the honor of earning my Bachelor’s degree from Clemson University in 2017. Smiling and laughter are my go-to medicine for life.
When we meet, you’ll probably notice that I usually have a smile on my face and a little joke in my back pocket. I love spreading positive energy and good vibes. As a true Libra, I’m all about peace, love, harmony, balance, and kindness. I truly believe it only takes one person to make a difference in someone’s life, and I hope I can be that positive change for you.
