Where We Work
If the only time you have for yourself is after work, therapy should be available then too.

Guiding Growth.
Restoring Hope.
01
Most people looking for a therapist are looking around a job, a school schedule, or a household. Because every Guiding Hope session is online, an evening appointment can start a few minutes after you get home.
Houston is the largest city in Texas and one of the most diverse in the country, a place of long commutes, packed calendars, and people working everywhere from the Texas Medical Center to the energy corridor.
02
Janell Goler is our primary evening and weekend clinician. Ashley Gutierrez also offers daytime, evening, and weekend telehealth. She works with teens, young adults, adults, and couples, specializes in LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients, and is fluent in American Sign Language. Ask about other clinicians' current openings during your consultation.
03
In Houston, an evening session online means no rush-hour drive before or after, so the hour you set aside is spent on therapy.
Every Guiding Hope clinician is licensed in Texas and meets clients by secure video anywhere in the state, so you choose a therapist for fit rather than for how close their office is.
04
Guiding Hope is in network with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and UnitedHealthcare. Coverage varies from plan to plan, so it is worth confirming your benefits before your first session. If you are out of network, the practice can provide a superbill you may be able to submit for reimbursement.
The first step is a free consultation. It is a short conversation where you can say what is going on, ask how online sessions work, and hear which clinician may be the best fit. There is no obligation, and you do not need to have the right words ready.

Common Questions
Yes. Every session at Guiding Hope is held by secure video, and all of our clinicians are licensed in Texas, so you can meet from anywhere in the state.
Guiding Hope is in network with Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and UnitedHealthcare. Coverage varies by plan, and superbills are available for out-of-network reimbursement.
You share a little about what is bringing you in, ask any practical questions, and talk through which clinician may fit. It is a conversation, not a commitment.
Please call 911 if you are in immediate danger, or call or text 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. Guiding Hope offers scheduled outpatient therapy and is not an emergency service.
A free consultation can help you ask questions, share what you are looking for, and consider whether one of our clinicians feels like a fit.
