An intake session is the first step in the therapy process, where we gather important information about your history, current concerns, and goals for therapy. It’s a time to discuss what brings you to therapy, explore your background, and address any questions you may have. This session helps us build a foundation for our work together and ensures your therapy experience is tailored to your unique needs.

Each session is 50 minutes long. There is an opportunity to schedule 80 minute sessions for an extra charge.

I offer in-person session in Downtown San Marcos, located at 136 East San Antonio St, San Marcos, Tx 78666. I also provide online sessions to anyone located in the state of Texas.

The length of therapy varies for each person, as it depends on your unique needs, goals, and the challenges you’re working through. Some people benefit from short-term therapy focused on specific issues, while others may prefer long-term support for deeper exploration and growth. It’s difficult to predict an exact timeline, but we’ll regularly check in on your progress to ensure therapy aligns with your goals and continues to meet your needs.

Individual $120, Couple $135, and Families $135 for a 50-minute session.

Currently, I do not accept insurance. While insurance can make therapy more accessible and cost-effective, it also requires a formal diagnosis for coverage. This means I would need to assign a label to you, which may not always align with my approach to therapy. My goal is to focus on your unique experiences and needs, rather than fitting you into a predefined category.

Anything you discuss in therapy will remain confidential and will not be shared without your consent. However, there are a few legal exceptions to confidentiality, such as if there is a risk of harm to yourself or others, suspected abuse or neglect of a child, elder, or vulnerable adult, or if records are subpoenaed by a court. These exceptions are in place to ensure safety and comply with the law, and they will be discussed with you at the start of therapy.

An Associate (LMFT-Associate) is a therapist who has completed the required education and training to practice but is in the process of gaining the supervised clinical experience needed for full licensure. LMFT-Associates deliver therapy services under supervision until they have reached 3,000 hours of experience.

Under Section 2799B-6 of the federal Public Health Service Act, also called the “No Surprises Act,” you have a right to receive a “good faith estimate” explaining how much your therapy services will cost. For more information about the Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call the federal Health & Human Services Department at 1-800-958-3059.
