Insurance: I accept Aetna and Optum (including UnitedHealthCare) plans.

A full list of plans I am in-network within Aetna and Optumcan be found here. Contact your insurance plan to see if you are eligible for benefits.

​If I do not accept your insurance, I am considered an "out-of-network provider". I can provide a "superbill" for you to submit independently to your insurance company but reimbursement is not guaranteed. Click here for more information about the "superbill" process.

I currently see individual therapy clients Monday - Thursday from 10am - 3pm.

I facilitate a People of Color/Multiracial Therapy Group in the evening on Tuesdays and I offer movement and meditation groups on Sundays.

I offer both! I offer virtual therapy (telehealth) for any resident of Texas and in-person therapy for those in Austin, located off of W. Koenig Lane and Burnet Road in the Brentwood neighborhood.

Somatic therapy is a body-centered approach to healing that helps you connect with your physical sensations, emotions, and nervous system. It gently supports you in processing stress, trauma, and stuck patterns through movement, breath, and awareness. This therapy can help you feel more grounded, present, and in tune with yourself.

Sessions may look a lot like traditional talk therapy - sharing thoughts, feelings, and what's been going on in your life while also gently bring in body awareness, noticing sensations, breath, posture, movements or tension as they arise. You may be invited to pause, breathe, move, or explore what your body is communicating, helping you process experiences not just through words, but through deeper mind-body connection.

If less than 48 hours notice is given for canceling or rescheduling or if you no-show a session, the following fee will apply:

Self-Pay Clients: 50% of your session rate
Insurance Clients: $65

*Please note that insurance does not cover this fee.

I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we are a good fit and answer any questions you have! Fill out the contact form to get scheduled or email me at contact@purnabajekal.com.
