I believe counseling should be accessible and transparent. Below you’ll find clear information about my fees, insurance options, and payment policies.
Insurances Accepted
I currently provide services under the supervision of April West, PLC-S, which allows me to accept the following insurance plans:
Aetna
Cigna
If you have one of these plans, your sessions will be billed through your insurance. You’ll be responsible for your copay, coinsurance, or deductible as determined by your plan. I’m happy to help you understand your benefits before starting therapy.
If you have other insurance, please see below for my out of network options.
Private Pay Session Fees
Session fees are outlined below. A nominal credit card processing fee is applied to all sessions and included in the total charge. This helps support secure and streamlined payment processing.
Individual Session $80
A 45-50 minute session dedicated to your healing, insight, and emotional well-being.
Couple/Family Session $100
This 45-50 minute session allows for partners or family members to join in the therapeutic process.
Reduced-Rate Options
I believe that access to quality mental health care should not depend solely on insurance coverage. To help make services more affordable, I offer the following private-pay and reduced-fee options:
Reduced Fee for Clients Without Active Insurance
Clients who do not currently have active insurance coverage and who experience financial hardship may qualify for a reduced rate of $60 for an individual session or $75 for a couple/family session. This option is intended to reduce financial barriers to care.
Private-Pay Option for Clients With Other Insurance
Clients who have insurance coverage through a carrier that I do not bill directly may choose to pay privately instead of submitting claims for reimbursement. The self-pay rate for these clients is $50 per session, or the amount equivalent to your behavioral health copay, whichever is lower. Insurance information may be requested to verify your eligibility for this rate.
Private-Pay Option for Medicaid or CHIP Eligible Clients
Clients who are eligible for Medicaid or CHIP and wish to pay privately may do so at a reduced rate of $40 for an individual session. Please note that I am not a Medicaid or CHIP provider and do not bill these programs. Clients using this option will be asked to, provide client member information and sign an acknowledgment form confirming that they are voluntarily choosing private-pay services that will not be reimbursed by Medicaid or CHIP.
Important Information
All fees are due at the time of service.
Reduced-fee arrangements are offered based on client circumstances and may be adjusted or discontinued with notice.
Documentation of financial need may be requested for verification of reduced-fee eligibility.
These policies comply with Texas professional ethics standards and applicable laws regarding fair and transparent fee practices.
