What Is Online Therapy?
Online therapy allows you to access affirming mental health care from wherever you are in New York. It’s a flexible, effective, and increasingly popular way to get support, especially for people with busy lives or marginalized identities.
According to a 2021 survey from the American Psychological Association, 96% of psychologists say teletherapy is effective. If you're ready to explore whether online therapy could work for you, let’s find a time to connect.

How Our Insurance Works for Online Therapy
"We accept most insurance plans that offer out-of-network benefits, including PPO and POS plans. Our admin team will verify your benefits before you start, provide you with a custom quote, and even file claims on your behalf. Our rates vary based on the therapist’s experience level, typically between $75–$250 per session, 35% below industry standards. We’re happy to help you understand what your out-of-pocket cost will be, so there are no surprises."
