Licensed Professional Counselor Associate

Supervised by Victoria Mercado, MS LPC-S, RYT-200

​

Telehealth Statewide •  Walk and Talk/ Ecotherapy Located in Spring, Texas 

​

​Welcoming a new chapter in life—whether through pregnancy, postpartum, early motherhood or navigating fertility or other hormonal challenges—can bring profound joy as well as unexpected emotional struggles. You don’t have to face those moments alone. I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy for individuals throughout Texas, with a special focus on the perinatal period and women’s mental health across the lifespan.

Good Faith Estimate and Cost of Therapy 

Under the No Surprises Act, health care providers are required to provide a Good Faith Estimate of the expected charges to any client who is uninsured, not using insurance, or elects to self-pay for services. The goal is to help you understand and anticipate the potential cost of your care.

 

This estimate outlines the typical fees for therapy services you may receive from me.

​

While I do not accept insurance, I can provide you with a superbill, if requested. 

​

What is a Superbill: 

​

A superbill allows you to submit your bill from therapy to your insurance company under your out-of-network benefits and receive a reimbursement. 

​​

Cash pay fees for session:

​

Individual Intake Session (75 minutes)- $150

Individual Ongoing Session (55 minutes)- $125

Couples Intake Session (75 minutes)- $150

Couples Ongoing Session (55 minutes)- $125

​​

Sliding Scale:

​

Sliding scale options are available on a need-basis and will be evaluated for appropriateness every 6 months. Sliding scale prices for therapy range from $65-$95. I provide sliding scale therapy, in partnership with OpenPath.

Therapeutic Areas of Focus 

Pregnancy and Postpartum Mental Health

The transition into parenthood can feel overwhelming, and it’s common to experience emotions that are confusing, intense, or difficult to talk about. I support individuals navigating:

 

  • Postpartum anxiety & depression

  • Pregnancy-related OCD (perinatal OCD)

  • Intrusive thoughts

  • Postpartum rage

  • Identity shifts and role changes after birth for individuals and couples 

  • Birth trauma or traumatic medical experiences

  • ADHD 

 

Whether you’re preparing for birth, healing after delivery, or trying to make sense of changes in your emotional world, therapy can help you regain balance and clarity.

Pregnancy Loss and Infertility

Grief around fertility, miscarriage, or pregnancy loss is often invisible but deeply felt. I offer a safe, gentle space for individuals and couples to process:

 

  • Grief after miscarriage or stillbirth

  • Recurrent pregnancy loss

  • Fertility challenges and the emotional toll of treatments

  • Medical trauma connected to reproductive care

 

You deserve support that honors your experience and your pace.

Hormonal Transitions: PMDD & Menopause

Hormonal changes can have a powerful impact on mental health. I help clients untangle emotional symptoms from physiological shifts and find tools to navigate:

 

  • Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD)

  • Perimenopause and menopause-related mood changes

 

Together, we work toward understanding your body’s patterns and building strategies that help you feel grounded and in control.

Trauma Therapy

Trauma can affect how you see yourself, your relationships, and your sense of safety. I offer trauma-informed care for:

 

  • Birth trauma

  • Medical trauma

  • Childhood or relational trauma

  • Single-incident or chronic trauma

 

Using modalities like EMDR, we focus on reducing the emotional charge of traumatic memories and helping you move forward with confidence and peace.
