Accepting insurance ensures more people can afford mental health care by reducing financial barriers. It makes therapy more accessible for a broader range of individuals.
Being part of insurance networks allows me to reach more clients, promoting better mental well-being by providing affordable therapy in Texas. I am in network with:
Aetna
Blue Cross and Blue Shield PPO
Cigna
Optum
Oscar
United
Out of Network*
Scroll down to the next section for more information on how to confirm with your insurance company regarding your benefits.
*Out-of-Network: if you don’t have an insurance that I accept, you’re still able to see me. Full fees are due at the time of the session and I will provide a “Superbill” for you to file for reimbursement from your insurance company.

Once we start our work, I commit to you. I ask that you are equally invested. Your time is specifically reserved for you so it is important you attend your sessions on time and regularly to reap the benefits of therapy.
Cancellations will need to be made at least 48 hours prior to your appointment. Otherwise, a $100 late cancellation fee / $200 no-show fee will be charged to your account (not your insurance company) for missed appointments.
Two consecutively cancelled appointments will result a conversation regarding potential barriers for attending sessions, requests for referrals, or termination. I understand unexpected life circumstances happen, so we can discuss if these situations arise.
Late arrivals will not receive an extension of time as a courtesy for other clients after your appointment.
explore your benefits.
Insurance benefits can be complex and confusing. It is YOUR responsibility to check with your insurance before scheduling appointments with any mental health provider:
for what your plan covers
that you fully understand those benefits
Otherwise, you will be held responsible for the full payment. You can access the company by contacting the number typically found on your card. It is important you do this to prevent any potential problems with billing and claims.
I have provided some questions as a guide when talking with your insurance:
-
What is my deductible for in-network benefits for mental health therapy?
Can you explain what a deductible is?
What does a co-payment mean?
How much is my co-payment for mental health services?
How much do I have to pay out-of-pocket before I pay the co-pay amount?
Do I have any telehealth benefits?
Am I limited on how many sessions are covered per year? If so, how many?
Does my plan require pre-authorization for therapy?
Do I have out-of-network mental health benefits if I go with a therapist outside of the plan?
How much will my out-of-network benefits reimburse?
Does my plan require a written referral from a medical doctor/specialist?
