Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.

Melinda Switzer - Beauty for Ashes Trauma Therapy and Treatment
Counselor/Therapist, Melinda Switzer, MA, LPC, NCC
As one who has experienced complex trauma myself, I believe I can relate to my clients’ experiences and needs. My philosophy is no one should have to live under the shadow of trauma and how it affects the body. Trauma can be tough on survivors, but there is help and hope for healing. Most trauma victims exhibit some signs and symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This can lead to Anxiety, Depression, Disassociation, and a myriad of other mental illnesses. These are the areas I specialize in by offering healing and hope to my clients allowing them to be in control of their trauma and not their trauma being in control of them. Strong mental health is so important and can change the trajectory of your life by helping you go from debilitating disorders to manageable and healthy mental health.

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.
10 Years Experience
Online in McAllen, TX
McAllen is the largest city in the Rio Grande Valley, a predominantly Spanish-speaking border region where the daily realities of life on the US-Mexico border—immigration, family separation, cross-border economic uncertainty, and the psychological stress of living in a highly scrutinized border community—shape the mental health landscape in ways that are unlike those of any other part of Texas. Spanish-language therapy is not merely preferred but essential in McAllen, and the demand for bilingual practitioners far outpaces supply in a region that is chronically underserved for mental health professionals per capita. The Rio Grande Valley ranks among the most underserved regions in the country for mental health care, and while health systems like DHR Health and South Texas Health System provide some behavioral health services, many residents go without needed support. Common therapy concerns include immigration-related anxiety and trauma, family separation stress, economic uncertainty, and the complex identity challenges of life in a bicultural, binational border community.
