   Self-Pay Counseling

If you do not have insurance, prefer not to use your insurance benefits, or your plan is not accepted, self-pay counseling is available at $150 per 53-minute session.

Choosing to self-pay allows you to access counseling without going through your insurance plan. This may be a good option if you value greater privacy around your mental health care, do not want a diagnosis or treatment information submitted to your insurance, or simply prefer not to use your insurance benefits.

Investment: $150 per 53-minute session

If you are unsure whether insurance or self-pay is the right option for you, I’m happy to help you understand your choices before getting started.

   Insurance-Based Counseling

If you have the following, you may be able to use your insurance benefits for counseling services:

• Aetna, 

• Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX), 

• Cigna/Evernorth, or 

• UnitedHealthcare

You can set up an initial consultation through Headway to check your benefits, insurance eligibility, and get started with scheduling.

Please note that insurance coverage and benefits vary by individual plan. Headway can help verify your coverage before your first appointment.

Out-of-Network Billing

Health insurance often provides some coverage for mental health services and I encourage use of all your resources to pay for therapy. Note that not all insurance plans are currently accepted. However, if  you have an insurance plan that offers “out of network coverage”, you can submit a "superbill" that I will provide upon request, to apply for a partial reimbursement through your insurance company. A "superbill" is a specialized invoice, which includes the procedure coding, diagnosis coding and session dates that your insurance carrier will need to reimburse you. In this arrangement, you are responsible for full payment of my fees rather than your insurance company. Please check with your insurance before beginning therapy to see what type of reimbursement you can expect.
