Read Before Scheduling: Who We Can Help, And Who We Cannot
We work with adults, teens, children, and couples. People come to us for support with anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, trauma, life transitions, grief, relationship strains, identity questions, and parenting concerns.
We do not prescribe medication or manage medication. We do not provide psychological testing or formal evaluations for school, work, disability, or court. We do not create legal reports or documents for custody cases, immigration, or fitness for duty. We cannot provide emergency or crisis care. If immediate safety is a concern, please call 988 or go to the nearest emergency room.
We are in-network with Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, and Oscar. Most other plans are considered out of network, and our regular private rates apply. Before your first appointment, we verify your benefits so you understand your costs ahead of time.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What does “Available now” mean at Real Talk?
It means that the therapist currently has openings and is accepting new clients. You can request a session directly from their schedule or reach out if you want help choosing.
What does “Waitlist” mean?
It means the therapist’s schedule is full. You can still join their waitlist, and we will offer you a first session with another licensed clinician within a week to talk about fit, urgency, and next steps. You will not be left waiting without a plan.
Can I see the therapists’ schedules before contacting the office?
Yes. This page allows you to go straight to each therapist’s schedule, see their real-time openings, and request a session. You will know exactly what is available without waiting for someone to email you back.
What happens after I request a session?
After you pick a time, our team checks your insurance benefits. We confirm your appointment only once you know your costs and feel comfortable moving forward. Nothing is finalized until you have all the information.
Do you offer therapy online in Texas?
Yes. All Real Talk clinicians offer online therapy anywhere in Texas. Several of our therapists also provide in-person sessions at our Houston location.
How do I know which therapist is right for me?
You can choose based on specialties and availability, or you can reach out and let us help. Our clinical director personally reviews every inquiry and matches you with someone who fits your needs and schedule. You will not be left guessing.
Do you accept insurance?
We are in network with Aetna, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, and Oscar. Most other plans fall under out of network. If you prefer to work with us as a private pay client, we provide a statement you can use to request possible reimbursement from your insurance.
Do you provide psychological testing, evaluations, or legal documents?
No. We focus on therapy only. We do not complete evaluations for school, work, disability, immigration, or court, and we do not write legal or medical documents. If you need these services, we can point you toward clinics that specialize in them.
Do you prescribe medication?
No. Real Talk therapists do not prescribe medication or manage medication. If you need psychiatric care, we can help you find a provider who offers that service.
What if I need immediate help?
If you are experiencing a crisis or have immediate safety concerns, therapy is not the right first step. Please call 988 or go to the nearest emergency room. Once you are safe, we can help you think about ongoing care.

This page shows you exactly which Real Talk therapists are available now for both in-person sessions in Houston and online therapy anywhere in Texas. You can view real time openings and request a session directly.
Can I get a same-week therapy appointment in Houston?
Often yes. Therapists marked as “available now” usually have openings within the week. If the person you want is full, we will still offer you a first session with another licensed clinician within a week to talk about fit and next steps.
Do you offer evening or morning appointments?
Several Real Talk clinicians offer early morning appointments and evening appointments. You can see these options directly on their schedules from this page.
Is online therapy in Texas the same as in-person therapy?
Yes. Online therapy is offered by licensed psychologists in Texas, and our clinicians provide the same quality of care virtually as they do in person. Many clients choose online sessions for convenience, flexibility, and privacy.
Do therapists at Real Talk specialize in anxiety or depression?
Yes. Many of our therapists specialize in anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, and life transitions. You can browse each clinician’s profile from this page and choose the person who fits your needs and style.
Can I switch therapists later?
