Therapy covered by insurance.



Real Talk Clinical Psychology was founded in 2018 to provide doctoral-level, depth-oriented care for those who need more than surface-level skills. Our Ph.D. and Psy.D. training allows us to address long-standing, complex cases, including overlapping diagnoses and symptoms that haven't responded to previous treatment.
To make this level of care accessible, we are in-network with Aetna, BCBS, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare/Optum, Oscar, Tricare, and Curative.
Starting therapy is often prompted by something that cannot wait, so we are structured to offer same-week appointments. We respond to inquiries within minutes on weekdays and within a few hours on evenings and weekends.

Real Talk is located between the Galleria area and Memorial, close enough to be central while remaining removed from the pace of the city. The building sits on a quiet, tree-lined street with ample parking and no through traffic, creating space to arrive before sessions begin.
Inside, the office offers natural light, privacy, and an environment structured to support clinical work.
Many people choose in-person therapy because being in the same room creates a particular kind of grounding, making it easier to stay with difficult thoughts, notice subtle shifts, and follow what emerges in real time.

Two Ways To Book Your Session
Let us match you (recommended)
Finding the right psychologist is hard to do on your own. When you fill out our form, our Clinical Director personally reviews your details to recommend the clinician whose approach best fits your specific needs.
You will be matched by a doctor, not an algorithm or an administrative coordinator. Careful matching makes a real difference.
It takes 1 minute.
Book online
You can schedule your first appointment now if you prefer. Our psychologist currently available for online booking is Dr. Joann Ly, who works with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and questions of identity, including complex presentations. She sees patients in English, both in person and online, and works with several major insurance plans.
