Insurance

I do not accept insurance. Insurance companies control how counselors provide therapy such as how many weeks of treatment you can get, how long the sessions can last and how often you can come to therapy. A mental health diagnosis is also required for reimbursement. Being an out-of-network provider helps me focus on giving you unrestricted care without the burden of being controlled by their stringent policies. The bottom line is this, your insurance company does not know what you’re going through, how to treat you, or what is best for you. Another important factor to consider is that I can keep your information completely secure and confidential and there will be no mental health diagnosis on your permanent health record (unless you request it or decide to submit super bills).

Supervision

Mary Nichter, PhD, LMFT-S, LPC-S As an LMFT Associate, I am required to receive one hour of supervision per week for two years. Because of her vast experience in counseling couples, families, and individuals, I have agreed to have Dr. Mary Nichter provide this supervision. She is board-certified to provide supervision to LMFT Associates (License 1957) and LPC Interns (License 13526). If you need to contact her regarding the care you are receiving, you may do so by phone or email. ​ Dr. Nichter has been an SHSU faculty member since 1999 and has fulfilled the roles of professor, counselor, educator, and program coordinator. She has also served as the first chair of the Counselor Education program at SHSU. Before she came to SHSU, she served as a professor and program coordinator at both San Jacinto and Blinn Colleges. Dr. Nichter’s early experience includes pre-school and kindergarten teaching, as well as school counseling.
