Start here
Request a call. Twenty minutes, free, no pressure.
This is not a call to explain your trauma to a stranger. It is a short, plain conversation to work out one thing: whether this is the right fit for you. If it is not, you will not leave empty handed.
How it goes
You request a call
Leave a name and the easiest way to reach you. That is it. You do not owe anyone your story on a web form.
We talk for 20 minutes
Free. A straight conversation with Dr. Tavel about what is going on and whether the way this is built fits you. No trauma recital, no pressure.
You get a clear answer
If it is a fit, we tell you how to start and when the next cohort of six begins. If it is not, we hand you a name from a vetted list. Either way you leave with a next step.
78% of program completers reported clinically meaningful improvement on the PCL-5 by week 12 (self-report). Honest number, not a guarantee.
The practical stuff, up front
Cost and paying for it
- Pay in full, in 3, or in 6. Nobody gets turned into a financing project.
- Cash pay and out of network on purpose, so the work answers to you, not to a billing code.
- A superbill is provided and the admin side helps you file for out of network reimbursement.
- Two reduced fee slots in every cohort. If money is the only thing in the way, say so on the call.
Where care happens
- Licensed statewide in Texas.
- Individual sessions in person in San Antonio, or by telehealth anywhere in Texas. A veteran in El Paso or Killeen qualifies the same as one down the street.
- The six man cohort meets virtually, so geography never breaks a unit, with one optional in person weekend in San Antonio partway through.
- Out of state: not yet. This is for Texas veterans.
Reimbursement and reduced fee
We are out of network on purpose. A superbill is provided for every session and the admin side helps you file it for out of network reimbursement, so you are not left to fight the paperwork alone.
There are two reduced fee slots in every cohort of six. If money is the only thing standing between you and starting, say that on the call. Nobody gets turned into a financing project.
If tonight is bad
This site is not an emergency service. If you are in crisis, get help now.
Call the Veterans Crisis Line: dial 988, then press 1. You can also text 838255. If you are in immediate danger, call 911. There is no wrong time to use those numbers, and using them is not weakness. It is doing the smart thing under fire.
