You may schedule an appointment here, or call (346) 901-7309 for a free phone consultation.
Appointments
Therapy appointments are offered both online and in person. Many people prefer the flexibility and convenience of meeting from their home, while others prefer the privacy and ability to connect at in-person appointments. Please let us know at the time of scheduling which option works best for you. We are located close to 59 and Dairy Ashford, near SW Houston/Sugar Land.
Client Portal
After scheduling an appointment, you’ll be sent a link to log into our secure client portal. From here, you can fill out intake paperwork, access documents, schedule appointments, receive appointment reminders, and log into online appointments.
During Your First Appointment
Your first session will include a brief review of the documents sent to you on the portal, making sure to address any questions you might have. This is also a time to discuss your goals for therapy, look at ways we might work together to reach those goals, and make to sure you feel comfortable and that we are a good fit to work together.

Our fees range from $75-$125. We do reserve a limited number of reduced fee therapy spots lower than this amount for those with limited funds.

Animal Assisted Therapy
Our therapy cat, Zen, is available to see clients with Amanda upon request and is often present in the hallway between sessions and ready to say hi to all visitors to our office. Sometimes, it’s easier to break the ice with a pet in the room. Zen is generally outgoing and affectionate, and many times, he will jump up on the sofa and sit next to clients during sessions. Having him near tends to help discuss difficult or emotional content. It is not necessary that he join us when we meet however. If you have allergies to cats, please let us know. The office is cleaned after he has visited, but allergens may still be present.
