“I helps adults with chronic pain and illness navigate the physical and emotional challenges of their conditions so they can reclaim their lives. You’ve been living with chronic pain or illness for months or years. You’ve been to countless appointments, gotten multiple opinions, and tried what seems like every treatment there is, and you’re still struggling. You feel exhausted, frustrated, and isolated. You feel trapped by pain and symptoms, and you just want your life back. You want a different way forward. Your symptoms are real, and you don't have to figure out how to heal alone. I provide specialized care for complex, poorly understood, and often "invisible" conditions, such as back pain, fibromyalgia, CRPS, migraines, dysautonomia, chronic fatigue, and many others. If you're looking for an experienced, compassionate psychologist and a different approach, we may be a good fit. I'll focus on helping you build a life that feels full and meaningful—not one defined by pain or illness.”

Maria Ortiz Perez

Cielo Azul Counseling

LPC

Licensed In:
Texas
“You might look like you have it together on the outside — responsible, high-functioning, the one others rely on — but internally feel anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. Maybe you overthink conversations, struggle to set boundaries, or notice that your reactions feel bigger than the situation in front of you. You may understand things logically, yet your body still feels on edge. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, attachment wounds, and relational stress. I also work with parents who want to respond to their children differently than they were parented — but find their own triggers, stress, or past experiences getting in the way. Many of my clients are thoughtful, self-aware individuals who are tired of surviving and want to feel more grounded and intentional. Some of the adults I work with grew up having to be strong.”

Laura Jacobs

Inspired Mental Wellness, LLC

LCSW

Licensed In:
Texas
“I help teens and young adults who feel anxious and stressed out and overwhelmed by academic pressure, social relationships, and figuring out who they are and what they want, build the confidence and ability to meet the world head-on and create the life they want. I also help people who have found themselves in the heartbreak of infertility, the stress of fertility treatments, and the maze of 3rd party family building stay anchored through the grief and unknowns so they can face the next steps with clarity and strength. Through my work with infertility, I was naturally pulled to support people during and after their pregnancy when everything about life as you knew it, changes. I support mothers who feel like they have lost themselves and are failing at everything in creating a life where they are fulfilled and whole.”

Finding online care in Texas

For many people, online therapy in Texas makes it easier to look beyond the nearest office and consider a wider range of options. That can be especially helpful in a state where large metro areas, suburbs, college towns, and rural communities may all involve very different access to care. Remote sessions can also make it easier to keep therapy consistent when long drives, work schedules, caregiving, or family routines make in person appointments harder to maintain.

Online care can be especially practical in Texas because day to day logistics are not always simple. Most of the state follows Central Time, but El Paso and parts of far West Texas follow Mountain Time. In a state this large, the specialist you want may be in another region entirely. As you compare providers, it can help to start with fit, availability, scheduling, and payment options. The resources below can help you verify licenses, review crisis supports, and explore lower cost mental health options if needed.

Online therapy in Texas: common questions

How do I use this page to find the right fit for online therapy in Texas?

Start with the issue that matters most to you, such as specialty, therapy modality, language, age group, insurance, and whether you are looking for therapy or medication management. Then read a few profiles closely and compare things like approach, availability, and whether the provider feels like a good match for what you want help with. It can help to reach out to two or three people so you can compare fit before booking.

What should I ask before booking with a therapist?

Before you book, ask a few practical questions that make the decision easier. Ask whether they are accepting new clients, what concerns they work with most often, how they usually structure sessions, and whether they offer the style of therapy you want. It is also a good idea to ask about session length, how often they usually recommend meeting, if they accept insurance or what self-pay costs are, and how cancellations work. If you travel often, ask what happens if you are outside Texas on the day of a session. If you are considering medication, ask whether they provide medication management directly or work alongside another prescriber.

Does my online therapist have to live in Texas, and what happens if I travel out of state?

Not necessarily. Your therapist does not have to live in Texas. What matters most is whether they are authorized to treat clients who are physically in Texas at the time of the session. If you travel out of state, even temporarily, your therapist may not be able to keep meeting with you unless they are also allowed to practice where you are located that day. Ask about this before you travel, and if you split time between states, start with our find a therapist licensed in multiple states page. If you want to double-check a provider’s Texas license, the official board links are in the resources below.

What types of mental health services are available online through telehealth in Texas?

Telehealth in Texas can include individual therapy, child or teen therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, group therapy, medication management, and sometimes testing and evaluations. What is available online depends on the provider’s license, specialty, and how they deliver care. Some people want one service, while others want a combination.

Can I find medication management providers here, and how is medication management different from online therapy?

Yes. You can use this directory to look for medication management providers in Texas. Medication management focuses on evaluating symptoms, deciding whether medication may help, prescribing when appropriate, and monitoring side effects or dose changes over time. Online therapy is talk-based care that helps with coping, emotions, relationships, behavior patterns, and long-term change. Some people use one or the other, and many use both. If you need controlled substances prescribed, check with the provider before booking about whether they can do that through telehealth, because there may be additional restrictions or requirements around prescribing controlled medications online.

Where can I start if I need lower cost or public mental health support in Texas?

A strong first step is your local mental health or behavioral health authority. Texas has a statewide network of these public agencies, and local mental health authorities may offer outpatient services based on ability to pay. You can also contact 2-1-1 Texas for local mental health and substance use resources. For peer support, family education, and local community connections, National Alliance on Mental Illness Texas can be helpful. If you are helping a teen or family in crisis, the Texas Youth Helpline is a 24/7 option. If you may qualify, Texas Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program are also worth checking. The official links are in the resources below.

How do I verify a therapist or prescriber’s Texas license?

For psychologists, licensed professional counselors, licensed marriage and family therapists, and social workers, use the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council license tools. For psychiatrists and other physicians, plus physician assistants, use the Texas Medical Board lookup. For nurse practitioners, including psychiatric nurse practitioners, use the Texas Board of Nursing verification portal. The official links are in the resources below.

Does insurance cover online therapy in Texas, and how does payment usually work?

Often, yes, but it depends on your plan and the provider. Use the insurance filter here as a starting point, then confirm the details before you book. Ask whether the provider is in network, what your copay or deductible is, and whether telehealth is billed differently from in-person care. If the provider is out of network, ask for the cash-pay rate and whether they can provide a superbill for reimbursement. It is also helpful to ask whether payment is charged before the session or after, and whether late cancellation or no-show fees apply. If you use Texas Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, confirm coverage and network participation directly with the provider or plan.

What technology or privacy setup do I need for virtual sessions?

For most online therapy appointments, it is best to meet from a secure location with privacy and a reliable internet connection. A computer or laptop is usually ideal, though a phone or tablet may also work depending on the provider and platform. Most sessions happen by video, but depending on the provider and service, phone calls, texting, secure messaging, or email may also be part of telehealth or follow-up communication. Many providers also have their own policies about where sessions can take place, so it is best to check ahead of time if privacy or location may be an issue.

Are there scheduling, regional, travel, or weather issues in Texas that can make online therapy especially practical?

Yes. Texas is a place where distance can affect care in a very real way. In some areas, the best-fit provider may be across a major metro, in another part of the region, or in a different Texas city altogether. Online therapy can make it easier to keep appointments when commuting, long drives, caregiving, shift work, school schedules, travel, heat, or bad weather would otherwise get in the way. It also gives you more freedom to choose a provider based on specialty, language, schedule, or insurance instead of only choosing the closest office.

When is online therapy not the right choice?

Online therapy may not be the best fit if you are in immediate crisis, need emergency support, require a higher level of care, or do not have a private space or secure internet connection for sessions. In those situations, in-person services or local crisis resources may be more appropriate. If you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, contact local emergency services or call the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 9-8-8 right away.
