Working parents shouldn’t have to choose between a paycheck and their child’s mental health care. We offer evening and weekend appointments so your child can be seen after school, after work, or on a Saturday morning — from either household.
After school, after work — weekdays through 7 pm.
Saturday morning slots for the families who need them.
Two-household families: kids can attend from either parent’s home.
Same-week scheduling. Private-pay with superbills.
If your child is anxious, struggling at school, melting down over small things, navigating a medical diagnosis, or just not themselves — you’re in the right place.
Little Dove Psychology specializes in virtual therapy for kids, teens, college students, and the parents who love them. We focus on four core areas: anxiety, depression, family conflict and communication, and emotion regulation. We don’t treat everyone for everything. We focus on what we do best.
Founded by Dr. Kristin Kroll, PhD — a licensed psychologist with hospital training and 16+ years of clinical experience — our practice brings depth of expertise to Texas families, without the months-long delays most pediatric psychologists require.
Serving families in: Dallas • Plano • Frisco • Southlake • Austin • Houston • San Antonio • and all of Texas

We focus on the four areas where good therapy makes the biggest difference for young people and their families. Real skills, real outcomes, on a Tuesday night when everything is falling apart.
For the kid with stomachaches before school, the teen who shrinks back in the hallways, the college student who is up at 2 a.m. spinning. Learn more →
For the young person who is tired in a way sleep does not fix. The light-dimming, world-behind-glass kind of tired. Learn more →
For parents stuck in the same fight about how to handle the kid. Getting back on the same team is what shifts the dynamic at home. Learn more →
For the kid whose feelings run bigger than her body has learned to hold. DBT-informed skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Learn more →
“The science is solid. The delivery is human.”

Learn More About College Student TherapyThe best therapist for depression is one trained in evidence-based approaches with research behind them — cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for depression, behavioral activation, and interpersonal therapy (IPT) are the most studied. For kids and teens, you also want a clinician who involves the family in the work, because depression in young people often shifts when the people around them shift too. At Little Dove Psychology, our clinicians are trained in evidence-based depression treatment for kids, teens, and college students, with family-involved approaches built in.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure-based therapy are the most studied and most effective treatments for anxiety, including in kids and teens. CBT helps young people identify the thoughts driving their anxiety and learn skills to manage them. Exposure-based work helps them gradually face the things their anxiety wants them to avoid — school, social situations, performance — with a clinician guiding the process. At Little Dove, we use both, shaped to fit the young person and the family. Learn more about anxiety therapy →
