Services

I specialize in therapeutic services that rebuild intrapersonal and interpersonal relationships, along with clinical services for those who are experiencing mental health, substance abuse, relationship, life challenges and/or crises.

I provide private therapeutic sessions in the comfort of your home, office, agreed location, or through a secured online format. I offer flexible appointments including evenings and some weekends. Clients who benefit from onsite services will be those who find traditional therapy difficult to get to, who desire appointment flexibility, and increased privacy and confidentiality with an option to utilize insurance or not. Many Level C executives, doctors, attorneys, or other high profile professionals benefit from the availability of a flexible schedule in the privacy of their home or office. For traveling professionals from Texas, I offer online therapy sessions at your convenience. Life coaching, different from clinical therapy, is offered in-person or through secured online sessions with availability throughout the United States. I am available for contract therapeutic services, mediation, court ordered therapy, psychoeducational presentations, and workshops.

For clients who have legal issues or agency involvement such as CPS, Probation, or Federal Mental Health Court, I am experienced in reporting to court and providing services that will allow clients to meet their stipulations. I am able to develop treatment/psychoeducational programs, such as an individualized domestic violence prevention or substance abuse classes and provide them privately face-to-face or in an online format. The client, agency/court and I can work collaboratively to support family goals, recovery, and stipulation success.

Sessions are client focused where therapy needs will be discussed and determined collaboratively. Typically, I have found that couples and family sessions do much better with 1.5 hour sessions. Depending on the presenting situations and client needs, most individual sessions are between 1 hour -1.5 hours. I do offer phone consultations or “mini-sessions”/check-ins from 15 – 30 mins. All sessions, whether via phone, online, or face-to-face, will be evaluated for appropriateness. The following are the various clinical sessions I offer. Please contact me for an initial consultation at 832-471-8711 or via email at criddlecounseling@gmail.com to discuss therapeutic needs, appointment availability, and rates.

At this time I do not accept insurance. However, I do have a National Provider Number that is available with invoicing to submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement. It is the client’s responsibility to confirm with their provider if the National Provider Number is acceptable for possible reimbursement. In the Spring of 2018 I will most likely accept Medicaid and be on some insurance panels in Texas.
