Located in Angelina County, Hudson, Texas is a small but mighty place. The county it is positioned in was named after a Native American Woman from the Hasinai tribe who served as a guide and interpreter for Spanish missionaries in the 1690s.

Just like the religious travelers, many of us lose our way and need help braving territories that are foreign to us. Thankfully, there are mental health experts in the Hudson area that can fill a similar role and help anyone ready to reach out for assistance.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about licensed therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Hudson area can be found below:

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Hudson due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
  • With a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Hudson may not take health insurance, some in the state of Texas may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Texas you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).
