Counseling FAQ

Simply telephone our office at 817-275-3617 and ask to make an appointment. A counselor will either speak with you directly or call you back within a reasonable time to schedule an appointment as quickly as possible. We can usually see new clients within a week, sometimes within a day or two, depending on the flexibility of your schedule.

Our full fee is $150 an hour. We accept most insurance plans. Please call your insurance office (not our office) to verify insurance. Because the Family Counseling Center Association is a non-profit organization serving the needs of the community, counseling services can be offered on a sliding scale–which has a minimum of $35–for those who do not have insurance and cannot pay the full fee.

Our address is:

Family Counseling Center Association
