Licensed Psychologist Serving San Antonio & South Central Texas
San Antonio families deserve access to top-quality mental health care without the hassle of long drives, crowded waiting rooms, or months-long delays. Little Dove Psychology provides expert virtual psychotherapy from the comfort of your San Antonio home.
Founded by Dr. Kristin Kroll, PhD, a licensed psychologist and former academic medicine professor, our practice brings specialized expertise in child, adolescent, and health psychology directly to South Central Texas families through secure video sessions.
Whether your kid is wrestling with anxiety, depression, family conflict, or big emotions, we bring the same caliber of care you would expect from a top children’s hospital, delivered virtually for kids, teens, and college students.
We help San Antonio kids, teens, and college students work through anxiety, depression, family conflict, and big emotions. Our evidence-based approach is tailored to each young person and the family she belongs to.
Parenting is demanding, and San Antonio’s fast pace can make it even harder. Our dedicated parent therapy helps you manage stress, prevent burnout, and build the skills you need to support your family’s mental health.
Dr. Kroll trained as a pediatric psychologist at Children's Wisconsin and held an academic appointment at the Medical College of Wisconsin. That hospital training shapes how she works today with anxious, depressed, and dysregulated kids and teens. Learn more →
We serve families throughout the San Antonio area and South Central Texas, including New Braunfels, Boerne, Schertz, Cibolo, Universal City, Seguin, Helotes, Leon Valley, Alamo Heights, and all surrounding communities. San Antonio’s military families, in particular, benefit from the flexibility of virtual therapy that can continue even with relocations.
Parents across the San Antonio area look for a "child psychologist near me," "online therapy in San Antonio," or a "teen anxiety therapist in Stone Oak or New Braunfels." Little Dove works with all of them, virtually, so where you live in the metro never limits which specialist your child can see.
Because care is delivered by secure video, a family in Alamo Heights gets the same specialized psychologist as a family in Schertz or Boerne. No cross-town commute, no local waitlist.
Book a free 15-minute consultation and we'll confirm the fit for your child's age and concern before you commit to anything.
Tell us what you're seeing at home or school. We'll help you figure out whether therapy, an ADHD evaluation, or a few parent-coaching sessions is the right first step.
No. Little Dove is a fully virtual practice, so we meet San Antonio families by secure video rather than from a local office. That lets a specialist child and teen psychologist work with your family whether you're in Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, New Braunfels, Boerne, or downtown, without commuting across 1604 or 281.
For most concerns, yes. Research consistently finds virtual therapy works as well as in-person for anxiety, depression, and family issues in kids and teens, and many young people open up more from their own room. We'll tell you honestly if your child's situation is one of the few that needs in-person care.
All of them, because we're virtual. We regularly work with families in San Antonio, Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, New Braunfels, Schertz, Cibolo, Seguin, Boerne, Helotes, Converse, and Universal City, plus anywhere else in Texas and PSYPACT states for college students who head out of state.
We specialize in kids, teens, and college students: anxiety, depression, family conflict and communication, and emotion regulation, plus ADHD evaluation and treatment. Our clinicians are Dr. Kristin Kroll, Dr. Meghan Kraenbring Comerford, and Antonette Anuwe.
Yes. Our psychologists are licensed in Texas, and through PSYPACT we can also see clients in other participating states, useful when a San Antonio teen leaves for college.
Little Dove is in network with Aetna, UnitedHealthcare (UHC), and Optum, with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas projected for late September or early October. For self-pay families, we provide a superbill you can submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement, and many families with PPO plans recover a meaningful portion. We are in network with Aetna, UnitedHealthcare (UHC), and Optum, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas is projected for late September or early October.
Our clinicians are trained to keep young kids engaged on screen (using games, drawing, movement, and screen-sharing), and a parent stays close by, which makes the parent-coaching part of treatment seamless. Most families are surprised how naturally it works.
