Getting to know Paul Peavy
My name is Paul Peavy, and I have over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Mental Health Therapist. I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's in Counseling and Human Systems from Florida State University. I am also a three-time Ironman triathlon finisher and stay active in DEKA and CrossFit-type competitions because I believe that what we do with our bodies affects our mind and our mood. I am a New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary dropout, meaning I believe that having a spiritual connection is so important to anyone's happiness, but I know organized religion may have left scars on many people. So it is important to find your own way to that connection. I like to say to people, “Just don't throw the baby out with the bath water.” I also gave a run at being a stand-up comic for a couple of years, so I have been shushed at every building I've worked in for my clients and for laughing too loudly. I mean, that's the point, isn't it? Let's all get to the point where we can laugh out loud!
What should a new client know about working with you?
Energy!!! I want you want to re-capture the joy and energy you were meant to have! I hope we can build simple stair steps to you climbing back to the top of your life! I want to give you the best opportunity to grow to be your best self! I hope you have a plan to get back to where you want to be and if you don't like the ideas I come up with please be honest and tell me your doubts so we can make it really work for you!

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.
