Fees/Insurance
Therapy fee scale:

realize that in today's world, with many insurance plans not covering the cost of mental health services, going into therapy may be an expensive proposition. If you are paying privately and these fees create a hardship, I do offer a sliding scale to be negotiated individually.

Insurance:

accept many insurances, including:

• Medicaid
• Medicare
• Blue Cross/Blue Shield
• Aetna
• United Behavioral Health

It's important for you to know that

• some insurances do not provide mental health services.
• some insurances have out-of-network benefits for mental health services.

It's good to know what mental health benefits your insurance provides.

Prior to your first visit, I will ask you to contact my billing provider, CenTex Medical Billing Services (512-267-2614), to have them check your insurance benefits. They’ll contact both you and me before your first appointment so we’ll know what to expect.

Employee Assistance Programs (EAP):

'm also a provider on these EAP panels:

• Interface EAP
• Pierrs
• Professional Counseling Associates (Compass Bank)

You must arrange sessions with your EAP representative prior to arranging your first visit.

Mediation:

ediation is charged on an hourly basis, and is rounded to the nearest quarter hour. Upon request, arrangements can be made for co-mediation (2 mediators). Most mediations tend to take between 2 and 4 hours.

Fees are to be divided evenly between the parties (unless otherwise agreed prior to mediation) and are to be paid immediately upon end of mediation session.

Workshops:

ees for workshops are generally negotiable, depending on amount of preparation work needed to provide individualized workshop.

A one-hour session will typically cost $150.00 - $200.00.
