Counseling Sessions: Besides being a participating Medicare and Medicaid Provider, I am also a member of various insurance panels and employee assistance programs. If you choose to use your mental health insurance benefit, please call your behavioral health insurance to verify my participation and get prior authorization along with applicable deductible and co-payment information. For those clients experiencing financial hardship, I offer a sliding scale payment option which can adjust the Houston standard therapy rate of $140 per session to a lower amount depending upon your financial predicament. I accept payments through check, cash, or a secure online credit card billing option. All payments are due at the time in which the service is rendered.
