Questions and Answers

What is the difference between psychotherapy and coaching?

Psychotherapy is mental health treatment, usually to help a person recover from a diagnosable mental illness. Coaching is skills building aimed at helping a person achieve a desired goal.

Does a mental health diagnosis exclude me from coaching?  

No. However, there are times when mental health symptoms are so pervasive that it would be hard to provide life- coaching without addressing the mental health symptoms. I will provide you with either psychotherapy or a referral for psychotherapy, if that is what you need before starting coaching.

What is the cost?

All services are $50 per session.

Do you take insurance?

I currently accept Blue Cross and Blue Shield.

How do I pay?

I accept cash payments via credit card for all services. Therapy clients pay through Simple Practice and coaching clients pay on this website.

Who is eligible for service?

Texas and Indiana residents can receive psychotherapy. I offer coaching regardless of location.

Why telehealth?

I have found telehealth to be an extremely effective and convenient way to provide my services to anybody who needs them.

Why do you offer psychotherapy in Indiana, when you live in Texas?

I am able to treat Indiana residents because I have an LCSW in Indiana. I am also licensed in Texas and living in San Antonio.
