Rates and Insurance

When you’re looking into therapy, cost and coverage can feel confusing or even overwhelming. We want you to feel safe, informed, and confident moving forward. Below you’ll find everything you need to know about rates, insurance, and how we try to make care accessible.

  • These rates represent each therapist’s full, standard fee.

  • We accept credit cards via our client portal for secure, convenient payment.

  • Affordability matters to us. We know not everyone can pay full cost all the time. Each therapist reserves part of their schedule for reduced-rate sessions for clients who are committed but have financial constraints. If that’s you, please ask — we’re here to help.

Why Private Pay Can Be Valuable

Working with a private pay therapist in Texas offers unique benefits. Because we aren’t tied to insurance requirements, your therapy can be more flexible and completely tailored to you. We don’t have to assign a diagnosis just to justify treatment, limit the number of sessions you can have, or stick to one specific approach.

Instead, you and your therapist decide what feels most helpful, at a pace that makes sense for your life. This means your care is truly centered on you—your goals, your values, and your healing journey. For many clients, this freedom makes online counseling in Texas more supportive, personal, and effective.

Insurance & Out-of-Network Benefits

We operate as out-of-network providers, which means we do not bill your insurance directly. But many health plans offer out-of-network reimbursement for psychotherapy.

Here’s how to check with your plan. Call your insurance company and ask these questions:

  1. Does my health plan cover outpatient mental health services?

  2. "What's my deductible? Has it been met?"

  3. "What does my plan cover before and after my deductible?"

  4. "Is there a limit to the number of sessions covered each year?"

  5. "Do I need a referral or approval from my primary care provider for coverage?"

If your plan offers out-of-network reimbursement, we’ll provide you with a superbill — a detailed receipt you can submit to your insurance for partial (or sometimes full) reimbursement, depending on your coverage.
