How often will we meet for therapy?

Most clients start on a weekly basis, then taper to biweekly for about a month as they near the end of their therapy goals.

How long will I be in therapy?

It varies. The work lasts as long as it needs to and not longer, based on what you came in carrying and what you want to get out of it.

Do you offer in-person and online therapy? Can you do EMDR, Brainspotting, and hypnotherapy remotely?

I'm a hybrid practice — in-person and online sessions in San Antonio and online across Texas. All three modalities, EMDR, Brainspotting, and hypnotherapy, are available remotely. Online sessions are held through a HIPAA-compliant platform via SimplePractice. You'll receive a secure link by phone or email before each session.

What are your therapy fees?

The initial 20-minute consultation is complimentary. Individual therapy sessions are $185, or your in-network copay, coinsurance, and/or deductible. Sessions are 50 minutes.

Which insurance do you accept?

I'm in network with Aetna, Regence, and United Healthcare/Optum. Check with your carrier to confirm I'm in network with your specific plan.

How does billing work for in-network and out-of-network insurance?

For self-pay clients, I handle billing directly. For clients using in-network benefits, I work with a third-party billing company. If you're using out-of-network benefits, you pay the session fee and I provide a Superbill to submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. Most carriers reimburse between 30% and 70% of session costs. Mentaya can check your out-of-network benefits for you if that's helpful. If you need a list of CPT codes for my services, reach out and I'll send those along.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancellations require 24 hours notice. Late cancellations are subject to a $75 fee.

What forms of payment do you accept?

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, HSA, and FSA cards are accepted.

Here’s How It Works

Start With a Consultation

The first step is a free 20-minute phone call. We'll talk about what's bringing you in, you can ask whatever you want to know, and we'll get a sense of whether we're a good fit. After you request one, I'll send a brief questionnaire so we can make the most of the time.

Get Started

If we decide to move forward, I'll send intake documents through SimplePractice, a secure HIPAA-compliant client portal. Everything is completed online, no printing, no scanning.

The Work Itself

Your intake forms help shape our first session, where we'll start to get a clear picture of what you're carrying and what you want from the work. From there, we build something specific to you.

How The Work Moves

The work moves at the pace your nervous system can actually use. It isn't rushed and isn't indefinite.

Fit matters. Sometimes that's clear on the consultation call. Sometimes it takes a session or two. Either way, we pay attention to it.

Your goals won't be fixed. Life keeps moving, and the work stays responsive to that.
