Meet Our Founder

Layered Feels was founded by Dr. Traci Williams, a board-certified clinical psychologist and certified financial therapist with over a decade of experience helping people just like you. She created Layered Feels to extend her therapeutic work beyond the walls of her private practice, making healing visible, wearable, and accessible to all.

Our Story

Layered Feels began with a simple belief: healing should be accessible, and what we wear can carry meaning far beyond fashion. Every piece of clothing tells a story of identity, resilience, and connection. Our founder, a psychologist, wanted to create a brand that helps people wear those stories proudly, while also opening doors for others
to get the support they need.

  • Why We Exist

    Mental health touches everyone, but access to therapy still feels out of reach for far too many. At the same time, stigma keeps so many of us silent about what we’re going through. Layered Feels was created to bridge those gaps, giving people designs that spark conversations, reduce shame, and directly fund therapy access.

  • How We Work

    Each design, whether a hoodie, a tee, or a sticker, is inspired by real therapeutic language and lived experience. Our entire team are mental health advocates, committed to making sure what we create isn’t just stylish but meaningful. To keep our process sustainable, we use print-on-demand production, so your order is created just
    for you while keeping waste to a minimum.

  • Beyond Apparel

    Layered Feels isn’t just a clothing brand, it’s a growing community! Through our weekly
    blog and active social media presence, we share therapy-inspired insights, reflections,
    and affirmations to support your mental wellness journey. We also keep you updated on therapy-related news, because staying informed helps us all advocate for change.
    Whether it’s a quick check-in on Instagram , TikTok, or a thoughtful read on our blog, we’re here to keep the conversation going.

Looking Ahead

Healing is more than a journey, it’s a movement. As we grow, we’ll continue to create designs that empower, share therapy resources and news that inform, and fund opportunities that make healing possible. Because at Layered Feels, we believe healing is always in style.
