Getting to know Peggy Wright
Are you looking for a seasoned, well-rounded therapist? Peggy Wright is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Approved Supervisor in the State of Texas. Licensed since 2001, Peggy earned her Master's in Counseling Psychology from Texas A&M University, Texarkana. She has extensive experience in domestic violence, sexual assault, trauma, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and relationship issues, having worked with victims, abusers, child witnesses, and countless others striving for emotional wellbeing. In addition to being a counselor, Peggy is also Board Certified in Neurofeedback. Although not currently practicing neurofeedback, her experience and training in this area have given her great depth of understanding into how the brain functions and impacts personality and behavior.
Additionally, Peggy has over 20 years of experience as a speaker on intimate partner violence, sexual abuse, and various topics related to trauma and mental health. Her most notable speaking engagements include the National Center for Victims of Crime (September 2016, Philadelphia), International Society for Neurofeedback and Research Annual Conference (September 2016, Orlando), Conference on Crimes Against Women (May 2017, Dallas), and several presentations at the Conference on Crimes Against Persons in Fort Bend County, Texas.
Throughout her career, Peggy has successfully trained dozens of counseling graduate students and licensure interns in their quest to achieve their professional goals. Also, working closely with prosecutors and private attorneys, she has served as both a fact and expert witness in numerous civil and criminal trials related to abuse and custody.
What should a new client know about working with you?
During the first session, I review the limitations of confidentiality to ensure that you understand those exceptions and that we are on the same page. Then I try to get to know you and your reason for seeking counseling. I explore your background and history to get a sense of how it impacts you today. Together, we determine your counseling goals. If time permits, we dive right into your goals, and I always try to leave you with some hope and something helpful to take away from the session.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
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.
