Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I believe therapy works best when it feels human, collaborative, and deeply respectful of your lived experience. I offer online therapy grounded in trauma-informed, systemic, and strengths-based care, with a strong commitment to affirming queer, polyamorous, and non-traditional relationship structures.
My approach centers safety, curiosity, and consent—both in the therapeutic relationship and in the pace of our work. I work with individuals and relationships navigating trauma, identity exploration, relational stress, and the impacts of burnout or chronic overwhelm. I also have a particular appreciation for working with helpers and clinicians, especially those carrying the weight of caring for others while trying to care for themselves.
In our work together, I aim to create a space where you don’t have to perform, explain, or justify who you are. Therapy with me is about building insight, strengthening resilience, and reconnecting with parts of yourself that may have been shaped by survival but are ready for something more sustainable and compassionate.

Gabrielle Carvajal
Pre-Licensed Professional, Licensed Professional Counselor Associate
I am a queer, neuro-divergent, disabled Latina who values social equity and liberation. I often bring my quirky sense of humor into the therapy room, while also being adaptable to my individual clients’ needs and personalities.
My personal interests include nature, gardening, being active outdoors, and spiritual reconnection with my indigenous culture. My previous career was in anthropology studying primates and I worked as a field researcher for lemur conservation efforts and as a caretaker in animal sanctuaries! I often spend my free time hanging out with my cats, my partner, and my friends. I am active in grassroots mutual aid work focusing on providing resources and supplies to unhoused folx around San Antonio. I can often be found sipping an iced coffee and I love expressing myself through my sense of fashion. I look forward to connecting with you!

Tamara C. Taylor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, MCHC, ASDCS
As a Licensed Professional Counselor with board certification, Master Certified Health Coach and Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist with 19+ years of experience, I want to hear your story. Why? Because it is your story and you deserve to tell it. Your story could be about happiness, love, hurt, anger, stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions and grief just to name a few. Sometimes all anyone wants to do is tell someone caring and compassionate their perspective regarding their story. As a therapist, I believe in giving everyone I meet a clean, unbiased slate. No judgment here. I will use a holistic (mind and body), open-minded and solution-focused approach in assisting anyone in telling their story, processing the events and moving forward with their life goals. I will support and at times coach you on practical ways to build tools to help you navigate this thing we call life.
