Do you accept insurance?

Yes. Con Cariño Psychotherapy accepts Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare (UHC), and Medicaid. Insurance coverage varies by plan, so we recommend verifying your specific benefits before your first session. If you are unsure what your plan covers or how to check, bring it up during your free 15-minute consultation. We are happy to help you navigate it.

Do you offer telehealth?

Yes. All sessions are available via secure telehealth. Telehealth is available for clients located in Texas, Maryland, Arkansas, and New Mexico. In-person sessions are available in the Katy and Houston, TX area.

What is a free 15-minute consultation, and what happens on that call?

It is a no-pressure phone call of about 15 minutes where you and Valerie can get a sense of each other before committing to anything. You can share a little about what is going on, ask any questions you have about the process or insurance, and feel out whether this is the right fit. There is no intake paperwork, no clinical assessment, and no obligation. It is just a conversation. If it feels right for both of us, you will schedule a first session from there.

How do I know if therapy is right for me?

If you are asking this question, that is usually a sign you are already ready to explore it. Therapy is not only for people in crisis. It is for anyone who wants to understand themselves better, work through something that has been weighing on them, or build a more grounded and connected life. You do not need a diagnosis. You do not need to have it all figured out. If something in you is saying you need more support, you are probably ready.

What areas do you serve?

Con Cariño Psychotherapy serves clients in the Houston and Katy, TX area for in-person sessions. Telehealth sessions are available for clients located anywhere in Texas, Maryland, Arkansas, or New Mexico. If you are not sure whether your location is covered, reach out and we will let you know.
