How Much Is Mental Health Counseling? Affordable Options in Texas and New Mexico

The cost of mental health counseling can be a significant barrier for many people seeking help. Whether it's individual or couples counseling, the expenses can add up quickly, especially if your current health insurance plan has high deductibles or limited mental health coverage. Fortunately, there are alternative options that can make accessing mental health care more affordable, such as United Health’s Mental Health Complete Plus. This telehealth product is not insurance, but it offers an array of valuable services at a fraction of the cost of traditional therapy.

Typical Costs of Mental Health Counseling

• Individual Counseling: On average, you can expect to pay between $100 to $200 per session without insurance.

• Couples Counseling: These sessions often range from $150 to $300 each, which can quickly add up if multiple sessions are required.

• High Deductibles and Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Many health insurance plans come with high deductibles, meaning you could be responsible for paying thousands of dollars before your coverage kicks in. Even with insurance, co-pays can still be expensive, which discourages many from pursuing consistent care.

Why Consider Mental Health Complete Plus?

Mental Health Complete Plus is a telehealth membership service that offers access to a wide range of healthcare professionals, including licensed therapists and counselors, all via phone or video. This product provides a flexible, cost-effective way to receive the mental health support you need without the burdensome costs associated with traditional therapy.

• Affordable Access to Counseling: For a low monthly fee, Mental Health Complete Plus gives you access to licensed mental health professionals. This can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs compared to paying per session.

• Comprehensive Telehealth Services: Besides mental health counseling, the plan includes access to general health consultations, dermatology, and other specialty care—all conducted virtually. This makes it a great supplement to your existing health plan, especially if you’re looking to minimize in-person visits and out-of-pocket costs.

• No Deductibles or Hidden Costs: With Mental Health Complete Plus, you won’t face the high deductibles often found with traditional insurance plans. This membership-based service allows you to get the care you need without worrying about surprise expenses.

• Convenience and Flexibility: One of the standout benefits of this plan is the ability to have counseling sessions from the comfort of your home or anywhere you have internet access. This is particularly valuable for busy individuals or those who may have transportation challenges.

• Ideal for Couples and Families: Whether it’s individual, couples, or family counseling, Mental Health Complete Plus provides a flexible solution that works around your schedule, helping you and your loved ones get the support needed without financial strain.
