Real Therapy for Real People
Online Therapy in Texas
Counseling by secure video for anyone located in Texas, from the Gulf Coast to West Texas.
Is This You?
You might be thinking:
- "There's no counselor near me who understands my culture."
- "I don't have time to drive across town for therapy."
- "I work long hours and need an evening appointment."
- "I'd feel more comfortable talking from home."
From Houston to El Paso
We see clients in Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, El Paso, the Rio Grande Valley and the small towns in between. If you are in Texas, you can meet with us.
Telehealth means no drive and no waiting room. You join from wherever you feel at ease.

- Trauma and PTSD
- Depression and anxiety
- Couples and family concerns
- Grief and life transitions
- Teens ages 13 to 17
- Sessions in English or Spanish
How We Work
Same care, by video
Sessions follow the same approaches our team uses for every client.
Matched to fit
We match you by what you bring and honor preferences where we can.
A plan you review
You and your counselor review the plan together about every three months.
What You Need
A private room where you won't be overheard, a stable internet connection, and a phone, tablet or laptop that is charged. Set it up hands-free so you can stay still and focused, and never join while driving.
You must be located in Texas at the time of each session. Evening and weekend appointments are available.
