Fees may be paid with cash, check, or credit card and are due at the time of service. Checks should be made out to "Alma Miller".

A credit/debit card is required to remain on file to cover insufficient funds, fees associated with failure to cancel an appointment, or failure to return books. Receipts can be provided upon request. |
Insurance For Counseling Services
While insurance is not accepted, a receipt can be provided for you to turn in to your insurance carrier for reimbursement as an out-of-network provider. Health insurance plans and benefits vary, so please consult your insurance provider about reimbursement for your counseling services prior to your visit. *Please review the “Reasons to Pay Privately” section below. |

Cancelation & Appointment Changes Policy:
There is a 48 hour cancelation & appointment change policy in place. You may cancel or reschedule your appointment, however, it is highly recommended you call within 48 hours of your appointment time to avoid cancelation or change fees. This allows others who are waiting for an appointment an opportunity to be seen. Failure to do so will result in a $50 cancellation/change fee on your credit card. Failure to cancel at all/No show will result in the full regular visit fee to the credit card on file. Monday cancelations should be done by Friday at close of business.
No fees are assessed for cancelations or changes made with more than 48 hours’ notice. For your convenience, a confidential voicemail box is available to receive messages 24/7 to request a change in appointment day or time, or to inform of a cancelation: 210-429-7557.

Reasons to Pay Privately
Private paying clients choose not to involve insurance companies in their mental health care. Their counseling is not limited by a diagnosis, treatment plan or session limits that health insurance companies mandate. Often, insurance companies limit the number of sessions and even the type of therapy they will cover.
In order to obtain reimbursement from your insurance company, a mental health diagnosis must be made. This becomes a part of your permanent health care record and the insurance company can review all of your records at their discretion.
By paying privately or out of pocket, we can assure private pay clients the highest degree of privacy, flexibility and control of their mental health and records that is allowed by Texas state law. We will work collaboratively to decide how often you would like to attend therapy and you decide what you want to focus on. You have the control over your mental health care.
