Counselors at our Katy office
A bad match is our problem to fix, not yours.
We made the match, so we carry the risk. The Reset covers fit, not results, and this is how it works.
-
Go to session one
That is the whole test. Nothing to sign up for, and no trial window to keep track of.
-
If it is off, just say so
One message to us. You do not owe anyone an explanation or an awkward goodbye.
-
We re-pick and rebook
A different counselor, matched from scratch. Your first session with them is free.
Katy · West Houston
You don’t have to have it figured out before you start.
Pick what sounds closest to where you are right now.
The late-night replay, constant planning, and feeling that your mind never gets a real break can wear you down. We can match you with a Katy therapist who regularly works with anxiety, worry, and overthinking.
You do not have to explain every detail before finding the right therapist. We look for clinicians with trauma-focused experience and can help connect you with someone whose approach fits what you’ve been through.
When you can still get through the day but everything feels muted, heavy, or disconnected, it can be difficult to know what to call it. We match you with therapists who regularly work with low mood, withdrawal, and loss of motivation.
Repeating the same argument can leave both of you feeling unheard and stuck. Maria Landa, our marriage and family therapist, sees couples at this office, married or not.
Work, family, schedules, and expectations can leave very little room for you. Our Kingsland Boulevard office is a local option in Katy, and video sessions are there for the weeks that are too full.
You do not need a diagnosis or the perfect explanation before reaching out. Tell us what has been harder lately in your own words, and we’ll use that to help find a therapist who may be a good fit.
None of these quite fit? Say it in your own words on the form.

Before you book
What you’re probably wondering
How soon can I start in Katy?
It depends on who has room at this office. Put the days and times that work for you on the form and we will say what is open before you book.
What if the first counselor is not the right fit?
Tell us. Fit matters more than almost anything else in whether counseling helps, so we do not treat it as a complaint.
Under the Reset, your first session with a new counselor is free. The Reset is about fit only, not a promise about results.
Which insurance plans can I use, and do you take Medicaid?
The twelve plans listed under Cost, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, UnitedHealthcare and Cigna, and we confirm your benefits before the first session. Original Medicare and UHC Medicare Advantage are on that list too.
Medicaid is not, and we cannot bill it. If that is your coverage, we will help you find someone who can.
What kind of counseling is available in Katy?
We offer individual counseling for adults dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and other concerns. Maria Landa, a licensed marriage and family therapist, also sees couples and families.
A teen can join a family session with Maria Landa here. For a teen's own counseling, we suggest our office in The Woodlands.
Tell us what you need on the form and we will help you find a counselor who fits.
What happens in the first therapy session?
You talk about what brought you in and what you want to be different, at whatever pace suits you. Your therapist uses that to suggest where to start, and you decide whether it feels right.
What kind of therapy do Katy counselors use?
Mostly Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), in weekly one-to-one sessions. Your counselor fits the approach to you rather than running a set program.
We do not run a DBT program or ERP as a protocol. If that is what you need, we will say so and help you find it.
Can I see a therapist in Katy by video instead?
Yes. Secure video therapy is available from anywhere in Texas, and we will match you with a counselor who offers it.
If your counselor offers both, you can mix them: in person on Kingsland Boulevard most weeks, and by video on the week the drive is the hard part.
Do you prescribe medication or offer psychiatry?
No. Acceptance Path Counseling is a counseling practice, and none of our counselors prescribe.
If you already see a prescriber, counseling runs alongside that and we can coordinate with your permission. If you need one, we will say so plainly and point you elsewhere.
If you were looking for a psychiatry practice with a similar name, that is a different business, not us.
Is a counselor the same as a therapist?
Here, yes. Our counselors are licensed in Texas as LPCs, LMFTs and LCSWs, which is the licensing most people mean when they search for a therapist.
We say counselor because it is our word for what we do. The work is the same either way.
Can I ask for a male or female therapist, or one who shares my background?
Yes, put it on the form. For gender, background, age or anything else, we will tell you honestly whether someone here fits.
If not, we will say whether another office or a video counselor would suit you better.
Is what I am dealing with serious enough for counseling?
If it is costing you sleep, evenings, patience with people you love, or the ability to start things, it is enough. You do not need a diagnosis or a crisis to come in.
Naming it is part of the work, not the entry fee.
Start with what this week has been like
One short form, in your own words. We read it, match you with a therapist, and tell you the estimated cost before you book.
Acceptance Path Counseling provides weekly counseling from licensed Texas counselors, in person at our office in Katy and by secure video across Texas. We are not a psychiatry practice and do not prescribe medication.
We do not offer group therapy, psychological testing, or intensive or inpatient programs, and will help you find them if you need them. Counseling is not an emergency service.
