What therapy costs here.
Oasis is in network with eight major insurance plans, and self-pay is straightforward. No mystery pricing, and no finding out what it costs after you've already started.

If you don't see your plan.
Ask anyway. Networks change, and some plans include out-of-network behavioral health benefits that reimburse a meaningful share of the session fee. Amber can provide a superbill — an itemized receipt with the codes your insurer needs — which you submit for reimbursement under those benefits.
If you'd rather skip insurance entirely, plenty of people do, and the reasons are legitimate. Using insurance requires a mental health diagnosis on file and gives your plan access to some treatment information. Paying privately keeps your record between you and your therapist. Both are reasonable choices and neither changes the care you get here.
Self-pay rates.
- Free 15-minute consultation. By phone or video, before you commit to anything.
- $160 per session. Fifty minutes, in person in west Austin or by telehealth anywhere in Texas.
- Sliding scale available upon application. A limited number of reduced-fee slots. If cost is the thing standing between you and starting, say so on the consultation call.
You will receive a Good Faith Estimate in writing before services begin, as federal law requires for anyone uninsured or not using insurance. You can also request one at any time, before scheduling anything.
Three questions worth asking your insurer.
Coverage varies plan to plan even within the same insurer, so the only reliable answer comes from your own plan. Call the member services number on your card and ask:
- Do I have outpatient mental health benefits, and is my deductible met?
- What is my copay or coinsurance for an outpatient therapy session with an in-network licensed clinical social worker?
- Do I need a referral or preauthorization, and is there a session limit per year?
If that call is one more thing you don't have capacity for right now, bring it to the free consultation instead. Amber will walk through it with you.
Still not sure what you'd pay?
Fifteen minutes on the phone, at no cost, and you'll leave knowing what therapy here would actually cost you — before you commit to anything.
