Therapist Austin, licensed providers for a fast changing city

Claimed profiles lead the list. Each one has a "License verified" badge, the therapist's own description of specialties and approaches, insurance, fees, format and an inquiry form. Below sits "More licensed providers in Austin", the registry section with name, credential, practice address and phone from the NPPES NPI Registry, for providers who have not added details yet. Call them to ask what they offer.

If you had a therapist in another state, you may wonder whether you can keep seeing them by video after the move. A therapist generally must be licensed in the state where you are located during the session, so once you live in Texas, your previous therapist would usually need a Texas license, and some interstate compacts apply only to certain professions. Ask them directly. If not, searching locally is the next step.

Austin practices are found Downtown and around South Congress, East Austin, Hyde Park, Mueller, Zilker and Allandale, and increasingly in Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Georgetown and Kyle. Traffic on I-35 and MoPac shapes how far most people are willing to drive for a weekly appointment, so compare a few ZIP codes.

Students at the University of Texas at Austin and other local colleges can usually ask their school's counseling center about on campus options and referrals, and can also search here for providers off campus.

New arrivals often have a new employer plan and are not sure who is in network yet. Call the number on your card or check your plan's provider search, then confirm with the practice, because networks change. Texas Medicaid and CHIP cover behavioral health for eligible members through managed care plans. When you pay privately, fees are set by the therapist, and broad national figures put many sessions somewhere around 100 to 250 USD. Our therapist that takes insurance guide explains in network and out of network in plain words.
