Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with individuals experiencing trauma and PTSD from a trauma-informed, relational, and strengths-based perspective. Trauma can result from a single event, repeated experiences, or ongoing stress, and its effects often extend beyond memory—impacting relationships, the nervous system, and daily functioning. In therapy, we move at your pace, focusing on safety, stabilization, and your personal goals.
Our work may include processing traumatic experiences, building coping skills, regulating the nervous system, and strengthening resilience. Therapy is a collaborative space where you can reclaim a sense of safety, reconnect with your body and emotions, and develop strategies to navigate triggers and stressors while honoring your unique experiences. My approach emphasizes empowerment, self-compassion, and sustainable healing rather than rushing toward “closure” or forcing outcomes.

I am a trauma specialist. Trauma — whether from childhood, relationships, military service, first responder work, or sudden life events — leaves lasting imprints on the nervous system and on how you see yourself and the world. I use trauma‑focused approaches like EMDR and IFS to help you process what happened with safety and clarity, and skills‑based approaches like DBT and CBT to support you in building steadier, healthier ways of coping. My style is gentle and directive. Together, we work to calm your nervous system, untangle the patterns that trauma created, and help you feel grounded, empowered, and more fully yourself again.

Sydney Fowler
Counselor/Therapist, MT-BC, LPC
I work with individuals experiencing trauma and PTSD, including symptoms such as intrusive memories, avoidance, heightened reactivity, and emotional distress. Trauma can have a lasting impact on how individuals feel, think, and relate to others, and treatment focuses on safely processing these experiences while building stability and coping skills. I utilize a trauma-informed approach, incorporating talk therapy and offering EMDR when appropriate to support adaptive processing and reduce symptom intensity. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, regain a sense of control, and move forward with greater confidence.

San Antonio is one of the largest military cities in the country, home to Fort Sam Houston, Joint Base San Antonio–Lackland, and Randolph AFB, generating exceptionally strong demand for therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, moral injury, and the challenges of military family life including frequent relocation and deployment stress. The city has a majority Hispanic population, and bilingual Spanish-English therapists and culturally grounded care for Latino families are consistently in high demand. University Health and the South Texas Veterans Health Care System provide major institutional mental health services alongside a large private practice community. San Antonio's strong Catholic faith tradition also means many residents seek therapists who can integrate spiritual values with evidence-based care.
