Frequently Asked Questions

Below are some of the most common questions we receive about our services. If you need more detailed information, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

What states do you serve?

We offer virtual services for clients in Texas and New Mexico.

What types of therapy do you offer?

We offer a range of therapeutic approaches for adults tailored to your unique needs, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, executive functioning coaching, and more.

Do you work with children?

No, our work at Rising Perspectives is focused on adults.

What is executive functioning?

Executive functioning refers to a set of cognitive processes that help us manage and regulate our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. These include skills such as planning, organization, time management, impulse control, and working memory.

How can executive functioning coaching help?

Executive functioning coaching focuses on developing personalized strategies to improve skills such as organization, time management, and goal setting. We work collaboratively with clients to create practical solutions and foster accountability.

What is the cost of therapy, and do you accept insurance?
  • Our fees depend on the type of service and session length. Sessions with our licensed therapists reflect their training and experience, and our student interns (when available) offer a reduced rate while they’re in training.

  • We are in-network with UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS), and Oscar through Headway. Insurance coverage always varies by plan, so we recommend checking directly with your provider to understand your benefits. You can do that instantly here.

  • If you don’t have insurance or your coverage is limited, we also offer a sliding scale to help keep therapy accessible.

  • And if we’re not in-network with your insurance, we use Mentaya to make things easier. Mentaya checks your out-of-network benefits, files your claims after each session, and keeps following up until you’re reimbursed. It’s totally hands-off for you, and there’s no extra cost unless your claim is successful.

Can I access therapy if I am not in El Paso?

Absolutely! Our online therapy services allow us to provide support through telehealth to individuals across Texas and New Mexico. With flexible scheduling and personalized care from experienced professionals, we are dedicated to helping you navigate and understand your mental health challenges effectively. Reach out today to schedule your appointment and take the first step toward improved mental well-being.

Why is it important to find the right therapist, and how does the therapeutic relationship support my growth?

Finding the right therapist is crucial because a strong therapeutic relationship fosters trust and openness, making it easier to explore your thoughts and feelings. When you feel comfortable with your therapist, it encourages vulnerability and deeper self-exploration, which are essential for personal growth and effective change. It’s perfectly okay if you decide we’re not the right fit for you; being open to finding someone else who better meets your needs is an important part of your healing journey.

What's included in an ADHD evaluation?

An ADHD evaluation includes a clinical interview, targeted screening and assessment tools, a review of relevant history, and a feedback session where we go through the results together in plain language. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of the findings and a sense of what next steps make sense for you.

What's the difference between a Clarity Assessment and a Comprehensive Evaluation?

Both tracks evaluate ADHD and autism together. The Clarity Assessment is a streamlined evaluation focused on personal understanding. This is best for adults who want answers for themselves and aren’t pursuing accommodations or medication paperwork.

The Comprehensive Evaluation adds standardized measures and a written report suitable for documentation needs like accommodations, medication conversations, or workplace requests. 

In Jane, these are listed as “Informal Assessment For Personal Clarity” and “Formal Assessment  With Written Report.”

How much does an ADHD evaluation cost?

Evaluation fees depend on the track.
The Clarity Assessment is $575 total, billed in two installments of $287.50.
The Comprehensive Evaluation is $800 total, billed in two installments of $400. Neither track is billed through insurance.

Do you offer therapy for adults with ADHD?

Yes, our ADHD therapy is focused on executive functioning, emotional regulation, identity support, and practical strategies for daily life. Therapy availability may be limited depending on caseload. Check Jane for our current openings.

Do you take insurance for therapy?

Rising Perspective Counseling is in-network with several insurance plans through Headway — you can check your coverage and estimated cost instantly. If you have out-of-network benefits instead, we also partner with Mentaya to help you get reimbursed for a portion of each session. We’re happy to help you figure out which option applies to you.

I'm not sure if I need therapy or an evaluation. Which should I start with?

That’s a really common question. An evaluation is a good starting point if you’ve never been formally assessed and want diagnostic clarity. Therapy can be a fit even without a formal diagnosis, especially if you’re already fairly certain ADHD is part of the picture. Not sure? Reach out and we’ll help you figure out the right fit.

Are autism and ADHD evaluated together?

Yes, every evaluation at Rising Perspective Counseling is integrated. ADHD and autism are considered together, alongside relevant co-occurring factors. You don’t have to know in advance which is the ‘right’ question to ask, that’s part of what the evaluation works out. Both assessment tracks (Clarity Assessment and Comprehensive Evaluation) cover the same scope. They differ only in depth and whether you receive formal documentation. If you’ve had an ADHD diagnosis that felt right but incomplete, or if you’re recognizing autistic patterns for the first time, our integrated process is built for exactly that situation.
