Appointment Options and Online Scheduling
In-person and virtual appointments via Zoom are available.
Online appointment scheduling is now available for first-time and single session appointments. To book, click the Patient Portal button on this page to view available appointment times, or contact us at 361.825.2703, or visit the clinic during regular business hours. You may schedule either a single session appointment or an initial consultation appointment online, up to two weeks in advance. Due to high demand, if no appointments appear available, please check again the next business day, as new appointments are released daily.
- Single Session Appointments: Meet with a counselor for one session to discuss a concern, receive support, and leave with a plan and resources. Sometimes, one session is all you need!
- Initial Consultation Appointments: Not sure what you need, or considering starting counseling? During an initial consultation, the counselor will gather information about your current needs and mental health history, and then provide recommendations for care. These recommendations may include scheduling brief individual therapy at the Counseling Center (usually every 2-3 weeks), utilizing online services, or a referral to appropriate campus or community resources—including referrals for more frequent, longer-term, or specialized therapy, or a medication evaluation.
