I have openings for two new clients (Wednesday or Thursday evenings). Our sessions can be in person (office in Highland Village) or via telehealth. Please visit my website www.schwolertcounseling.com and e-mail, call or send a message if you are interested in additional information. I am an out-of-network provider, however I will provide the documentation you need to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Thank you! I hope you are taking care of YOU.
