Been running for about a month in ASICS Gel-Kayano Lite 3s from local running store and they are starting to hurt the inside of my feet. These are more of a support shoe.
Could the neutral vs. support shoe be the issue? I need a neutral shoe?

Is the strike pattern neutral?
Why are you buying a support shoe when you had neutral shoes before?
Support shoes are bad for you. It basically comes down to toning your arches using your core so they support themselves like a tensegrity bridge. People with flat feet usually just have undertoned arches; holding your arch up with "support" will only make it weaker.
The running store employee told me to try support shoes...I did show them my Brooks and said I was happy with them.
I think a stability shoe could be the issue, even more so if you run on uneven pavement or terrain.
I've run in the Asics GT-2000 for the past 8 years. Before that, I ran in the Brooks Adrenaline for about a decade because they had an outlet store near where I grew up so getting armfuls of shoes at $35 a pair was very much encouraged by my parents (I started running in middle school).
I ran in stability models between the two brands, but prefer the less roomy upper on the Asics than the Brooks Adrenaline. I bought a pair of Adrenalines on a lark a year or so ago and wasn't impressed with them, even with nostalgia kicking in. I felt like I was floating in the upper and the spongey mesh material didn't help matters. You might have a wider foot and might benefit from the roomier Brooks. They're known for having wider standard sizing on their shoes.
Generally speaking, neutral runners can get away with wearing stability shoes with no issues, but pronators that need stability shoes can't get away with wearing neutral shoes.
