I would think that would work since all the nurse pract/midwife is doing counceling for "sexual practices" (family planning in this case) as defined in the guidelines for 99401.
Playing the devil's advocate.... If a claim gets kicked back with those codes, I would first assume it's because you're not supposed to use V25.09 as a primary Dx.
