Olga Watts-Smith, LCPC, helps individuals and families across Illinois navigate life’s challenges with clarity, compassion, and practical tools for lasting change. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor at LifeStance Health, she provides individual, couples, and family therapy for teens, adults, and seniors.

Olga creates a supportive, collaborative environment where clients feel heard and empowered while working toward meaningful progress in their mental health and relationships. Olga specializes in treating anxiety, depression, and ADHD, with a thoughtful approach that blends evidence-based care and genuine connection. She utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques to help clients better understand their thoughts, regulate emotions, and develop healthier coping strategies.

Whether someone is facing daily stressors or more complex mental health concerns, Olga tailors treatment to meet each client’s unique goals and circumstances, while also offering additional areas of support. She is especially passionate about helping individuals through midlife transitions, couples navigating relationship challenges, and those coping with grief. Olga understands how life changes—whether expected or sudden—can impact emotional well-being, identity, and connection with others.

Her work in these areas focuses on fostering resilience, improving communication, and helping clients rediscover a sense of balance and purpose during difficult seasons. With experience supporting a wide range of adult populations, Olga offers a grounded, empathetic perspective that encourages growth and self-awareness. Her approach is both structured and flexible, allowing clients to build skills they can apply in everyday life while feeling supported throughout the therapeutic process. Outside of her clinical work, Olga enjoys spending time with her family, playing golf, traveling, and volunteering with her church and sorority, which reflects her commitment to community and connection.
