CONSUMER RIGHTS

KEEPING YOU IN MIND

At Root Cap Counseling, we are committed to transparency, protecting your privacy, and ensuring you understand your rights regarding your health records and the cost of your care. This page provides essential disclosures in compliance with Texas state laws, including House Bill 4224 and the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council (BHEC) regulations.

Standard Fees & Financial Disclosures

Individual Therapy (In-Person & Telehealth)

  • Private Pay / Cash Rate: $140.00 per session

  • Insurance Coverage: If you plan to use health insurance to cover the cost of your sessions, you must contact your insurance provider directly to confirm your specific benefits, including any copays, coinsurance, or deductibles.

  • Third-Party Billing Disclaimer (Headway): Root Cap Counseling utilizes Headway, a third-party billing service, to process insurance claims. Any benefit checks or cost estimates provided by Headway are soft inquiries and estimations only. Your final responsibility may change once your insurance carrier completes their standard 90-day audit. To avoid unexpected costs, we highly recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to verify your exact rates for services.

Couples Counseling (In-Person Only)

  • Private Pay / Cash Rate: $210.00 per session

  • Note on Couples Counseling: We offer couples counseling as a private cash-pay option only. Insurance is not accepted for couples counseling. Please note that all couples counseling sessions must be conducted in person; teletherapy is not available for this service.

Under Texas law and federal HIPAA regulations, you have the right to access and obtain copies of your clinical records.

  • How to Request Records: To inspect or receive a copy of your health records, please submit a written request to Root Cap Counseling.
