Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Providing psychotherapy for serving adults, couples, first-responders, and high-reliability personnel.
Rooted in San Antonio. Serving individuals across Texas and beyond.
Dr. Bannar is private pay-only practice, he does not accept insurance, Medicaid, or Medicare. As an out-of-network provider, I do not bill insurance directly. However, I can provide a superbill upon request, which you may submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement. Payment is due directly to our office at the time of service.
Private pay services offer faster access, personalized care, and increased flexibility compared to insurance-based options. I tailor each evaluation and intervention to your specific needs; without being restricted by insurance time limits or diagnosis requirements. Private pay also ensures greater privacy, as your care remain confidential and are not shared with insurance providers.
This approach allows for quicker, more comprehensive, high-quality treatment.
Ultimately, private pay puts your needs first – offering a compassionate, timely, and customized path toward clarity and support. I am here to meet your needs, not the insurance company.
Services Offered
-
Individual Psychotherapy - $190/hr
One on One therapy with an emphasis on applying evidence-based approaches that give you real, practical tools to navigate your current circumstances. This is more than “just talking.” I don’t believe in endlessly analyzing problems or just telling you to “think positive.” I will focus on equipping you with a perspective, alternative approaches, tools, and treatment that help you manage life with more confidence, clarity, resilience, and grit.
-
Couples Therapy - $200/hr
Relationships are vital to who we are and are likely the reason you work hard. They can also be a source of great pain. I will work with couples to improve their relationship, change unhelpful relational patterns, have deeper connections, and resolve rifts or broken trust. If you are the partner or spouse of a first responder or military member, I have direct cultural understanding of the challenges you face. Navigating relational difficulties in couples therapy will be objective, collaborative, and emotionally-focused.
