Getting to know Tomekia Edwards
My name is Tomekia Edwards. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (Texas and California) with over 14 years of experience. I hold a Master of Education in Counselor Education from the University of New Orleans. I have worked in inpatient behavioral health, mobile psychiatric assessment, and HIV case management capacities. Additionally, I have supported service members and their families with issues related to military life. Typical concerns I address through counseling include anxiety, depression, work and school stressors, and relationship challenges. I provide services grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused approaches, with extensive experience working with adults, children, families, and the LGBTQIA+ community.
Helping my clients achieve balance in life and feel supported is my ultimate goal. In therapy, we explore approaches and skills you can use to address your presenting issues. During your first session, you can expect to have your questions about the therapy journey answered. You will also be asked about your mental health history and current symptoms. The initial session is an opportunity to ensure we are a good fit for each other. If you think we might be a good fit, I encourage you to reach out today.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As a client, you can expect to take away a better understanding of your presenting issues and triggers. You can also expect to develop strategies and techniques that you can begin to implement in your life.

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.
