In partnership with Real Feels Therapy

Talk Therapy. Effortlessly woven into the rest of your care.

Our therapists help with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, stress, substance use, and the real-life stuff that does not fit neatly into a checkbox. Available in person or by secure video, with your psychiatric medical team close by when needed.

Trauma-informed care. EMDR coming soon.

How it works

Treatment, explained simply.

Evidence-based modalities

Therapy that actually does something

CBT, DBT, ACT, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused therapy, attachment work, mindfulness, and supportive therapy may all show up here. But the method is never the main character. Your life is.

Built around the actual problem

Individual or couples

Anxiety. Grief. Conflict. Stress. Trauma. Substance use. Life getting weird. We match you with a therapist whose style fits what you are carrying. If it is not the right fit, we switch.

One team, one chart

Coordinated with psychiatry

Your therapist and prescribing clinician can work from the same plan, when appropriate. If therapy surfaces something medication-relevant, the loop closes quickly. Fewer silos. Less 'please tell your whole story again.'

What treatment looks like

From consultation to lasting relief.

  1. Therapy intake

    50 minutes

    Your first visit is a structured intake. We learn your history, your goals, and what you've tried. By the end of the hour, you'll know what model of therapy we're recommending and why.

  2. Active treatment

    55-ish minutes, weekly to start

    Most patients start once a week. Standard sessions are usually about 55 minutes, with insurance sessions typically billed in the 53-60 minute range. CBT, DBT, ACT, trauma-focused work, and supportive therapy often run 12 to 20 sessions. Some work is shorter. Some deserves more time.

  3. Spacing out

    Every other week, then monthly

    Once skills are landing and symptoms are easing, sessions space out. You don't have to graduate. Many patients stay on for maintenance.

  4. Maintenance and tune-ups

    Whenever life shifts

    Therapy isn't a one-and-done. We're here for the bigger transitions. New job, loss, postpartum, big life changes. Reach out and we'll get you back on the schedule.

Is this right for you?

You may be an ideal candidate if any of these ring true.

  • You want real therapy from a trained clinician, not an app, a chatbot, or a vibes-based life coach.
  • You're already in psychiatric care and want a therapist who can actually coordinate with your prescriber.
  • You're processing trauma and want care that understands how trauma actually shows up in the brain, body, relationships, and daily life.
  • You and a partner want couples therapy.
  • You'd prefer a therapist who takes insurance, including Medicaid where available.

Frequently Asked Questions

We work with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship stress, family conflict, substance use concerns, irritability, life transitions, chronic illness, self-esteem, work stress, and coping skills. Your therapist may use CBT, DBT, ACT, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused therapy, attachment-based therapy, psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, Internal Family Systems-informed work, supportive therapy, or couples and family therapy approaches. Translation: we do not force every patient into the same mold. We match the therapy to the person.
Most therapy sessions are scheduled for about 55 minutes. When insurance is used, sessions are typically billed based on the clinical time spent with your therapist, commonly in the 53-60 minute range. Intake visits, couples sessions, and family sessions may run longer.
Yes. Most of our therapy is available by secure video across every state we're licensed in. In-person is available at our clinics.
Most commercial plans, Medicare, and the Medicaid programs we participate in cover talk therapy. Our team verifies your benefits before the first session.
Tell us. The fit between you and your therapist matters more than almost anything else, and we'll switch you to a different clinician without making it a thing.
No. Many patients start with therapy first. Your therapist can complete an initial assessment, help clarify what is going on, and identify a diagnosis when one is clinically appropriate. If medication, a psychiatric evaluation, or additional medical support would help, we can coordinate that under the same roof. No handoff maze. No 'good luck finding someone.'
Therapy can help with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship conflict, family stress, substance use, anger, irritability, work stress, life transitions, chronic illness, self-esteem, coping skills, and patterns that keep repeating even when you are trying hard to change them. If you are not sure whether therapy fits what you are dealing with, that is normal. Start with the conversation. We will help sort out the next step.
Initial therapy intakes are typically available within 1 to 2 weeks. Telehealth slots tend to open up sooner.
