Parag Sanghvi, LCSW

Psychotherapist
TX
Hi there, I'm Parag. You were not put here on this earth to suffer. You deserve to live your life with happiness and peace of mind. Mental illness and addiction can rob anyone of these precious gifts. When you turn to family and friends for support, often they don't know what to say or how to help. You can end up feeling very alone in the world. No one wants to develop mental illness or addictions. You didn't do anything wrong. Feeling emotionally numb, mentally overwhelmed, or having thoughts like "I just don't want to be on this earth anymore" are not things that people willingly choose for themselves. They are illnesses. We often get sick through no fault of our own. Just like some people get diabetes or heart disease, some people get mental illness. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Texas, Arlington, and have worked over five years in an inpatient psychiatric hospital. During that time, I have helped patients overcome symptoms of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, phobias, relationship problems, and self-esteem issues. My approach is to get to know you as a person and work on addressing what is really going on with your mind and your life right now. I know getting therapy can be scary, but I will do everything I can to help you feel heard, understood, and genuinely cared for. Give yourself a chance to have peace of mind again.

What should a new client know about working with you?

" The most important thing for therapy to work is establishing trust and a comfort level with the therapeutic process. My approach is to first take the time to get to know you as a whole person and then start identifying what things in your life (both recent and from your past) may be contributing to your current mental health struggles. I don't ever forget that you are likely in a more fragile and vulnerable state than you are used to, and I go out of my way to help you feel at ease. The key is to really listen to you - not just the words but the meaning behind what you are saying. With compassion and understanding, I then use my education and experience to help point out the power you have to change and improve your current situation."

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
