I have a question regarding my boundaries as Primary Managing Conservator of my child?

I am a mother with full time custody of our 10 year old daughter and her dad has her on the usual weekends and hoildays. Our divorce papers are very standard in their writing no special contingencies in them as such he has to split all her health care expenses with me 50/50, I see a need for her to go to a good child counselor on some issues she is dealing with at her dads house. He remarried a month after the divorce, and now has his wife's 4 grandkids practically living there as well. He also is coming down very strict with our daughter on many things and so they ( daughter and dad)spend most of their weekends arguing with one another. He thinks all counselors are a bunch of quacks. So my wanting to take her to counseling will meet heavy opposition from him. So here is the question- can I still take her to counseling and have him pay his 50% of those sessions, even if he puts up a big fuss about it? Does he have the power to veto my taking her to counseling?
