Kellie Gray-Smith, PhD

Licensed School Psychologist

972-333-2912

Picture
Background/Experience/Training
Kellie is both a licensed psychologist and a licensed specialist in school psychology in Texas. She has over 18 years of professional counseling, evaluation, and training experience with children, adolescents, young adults, and families from diverse backgrounds in schools, hospitals, and psychiatric facilities. In her work across ages 5 years to 21 years, including all ability levels and cultural backgrounds, she finds great value in individual and skills based group work. Kellie’s therapeutic approach is comprised of cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and play therapy. Treatment specialization includes childhood through young adulthood onset emotional-behavioral disorders, including ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, and anger management. Additionally, Kellie provides crisis intervention, school consultation that addresses school refusal, special education and section 504 guidance, social skills instruction, behavior modification, and parenting support that develops healthy communication and conflict resolution. She has extensive experience conducting psychological evaluations, including clinical diagnoses across all child, adolescent, and young adulthood age ranges. 

Personal Statement
My professional practice is fueled by my mission to help children and families move beyond devastating crises/trauma, destructive behavior patterns, and self defeating thoughts and feelings. My fundamental belief in the central roles that mental health and behavioral wellness play in the overall quality of life is true for everyone regardless of age and cultural background. Helping children and families achieve a more hopeful present and future by partnering with them as they work through challenging life experiences fuels my passion for serving others and helping children build resiliency and healing.
 
Education
Kellie earned a Masters and Doctorate of psychology from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a focus in clinical and school. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Texas A&M at College Station.
