The Mending Place
​
Hi, I’m Dr. Leann V. Smith, Ph.D., a Licensed Psychologist (TX #38882) and the founder of The Mending Place, PLLC. My work sits at the intersection of healing, growth, and alignment—supporting individuals and communities through therapy, coaching, consultation, and holistic wellness programming.
At The Mending Place, we specialize in helping people reconnect with their purpose, restore balance, and feel whole again. Whether you're navigating burnout, looking to reclaim joy, or building emotional wellness from the ground up—we meet you where you are and walk with you toward what’s possible.

In addition to my clinical and coaching work, my research focuses on identity development, racial equity in mental health, and purpose-centered wellness.

A Note on Psychological Assessments
​​
I do provide psychological assessments, but these services are offered through my work with LifeStance Health. If you are here looking for testing services (for ADHD, ASD, mood disorders, learning differences, etc.), you can access those directly through my LifeStance provider page:
