Online Therapists for San Marcos, TX

Video sessions fit between classes, a shift, or a commute from Kyle or New Braunfels. We schedule 7 days a week, with evening and weekend appointments.

If you’d rather be in the room, Westlake is the closer of our two offices: about 33 miles from San Marcos. Take I-35 north, go west on Ben White Boulevard (US 290/SH 71), then north on Loop 360 to Bee Caves Road. Plan on about 40 minutes with clear roads and longer when I-35 backs up. Many people keep most sessions online and ask whether their therapist also has Westlake hours for the occasional visit in person.

Video holds up well. A 2018 review of 12 studies found symptoms improved no less with video therapy than with face-to-face sessions (Norwood et al., Clinical Psychology & Psychotherapy).

Texas State students and families

Texas State’s Counseling Center is a good first stop for students. It’s set up for brief work, averaging three to five sessions, and it refers students who need longer-term care to providers in the community. That’s often where we come in: one therapist you can keep seeing all year, from your apartment or a quiet room on campus.

Our ties to Texas State go back to the practice’s early days. Dr. Kevin Fall, now chair of Texas State’s Department of Counseling, Leadership, Adult Education and School Psychology, consulted with Just Mind for more than five years. We’ve hired a number of Texas State graduates since. Abi Tesfaye, LPC, and Lindsay Schneeberger, LPC, both earned their counseling master’s degrees at Texas State and see clients at Westlake and online. Julie Osofsky, LPC, a Texas State graduate too, built intensive outpatient programs for young adults ages 18 to 24 earlier in her career.

If you’re from out of state, plan ahead for summer and winter break. Licensing follows where you are during the session (Texas BHEC), so a Texas therapist generally can’t meet with you while you’re home in another state. College students on a parent’s plan should check whether it’s one we take.

Our teen therapists see ages 12 to 18 with a parent involved, which helps San Marcos families with younger kids still at home.

What we help with

We see a lot of what comes with college and early adulthood: ADHD that suddenly shows up when structure disappears, anxiety about exams and what comes after, and depression. Our therapists also treat trauma and grief, and they work with couples. Each one holds a Texas license, so any of them can see you in San Marcos.
