My name is Mark Crowe, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I have worked in the mental health field for over 14 years and currently own and operate a private practice in the Greater Houston area. My professional career has involved working for child protective services, and many years working as a high school counselor. I have extensive experience working with young adults, families and parents, and couples. Areas of struggle that I have helped clients include depression, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting issues, relationship and marriage troubles, and family conflict. I understand that seeking counseling can at times take a tremendous amount of courage and emotional effort. Having been in counseling as a child with my own family, I can empathize with this feeling. I have seen counseling when it is ineffective, and I have also been involved when it has provided great healing. As a therapist, I take this experience and seek to make the counseling experience as natural, laid back and easy as possible. I seek to build a comfortable and relaxed relationship with my clients, where we can develop a plan to address the areas in your life which have caused pain, stress and discomfort. I value the counseling relationship and have been described as passionate, responsive and caring by former and current clients. We all go through times of struggle and pain. We all have our stories to tell and our own healing to attain. If you feel like this now and are seeking help, I look forward to the opportunity to work with you. *** NOTE= DUE TO PERSONAL WORK SCHEDULE, I AM ONLY AVAILABLE TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOONS.******

How does the cost of in-person sessions with a therapist compare to the cost of 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 Lumberton 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 Lumberton 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).
