PSYCHē is a group of therapists who are great at doing therapy AND at connecting you with the right therapist. Our network of therapists all across the country means that you can get started working with a solid and skilled clinician in your state. Because our reputation for holding therapists accountable and going above and beyond for clients is unmatched in our field, you know you’ll be taken care of from the beginning to the end of treatment.

What is the first step?

The first step is to meet online with one of our expert PSYCHē therapists. In this 60-90 minute meeting, you’ll share your background, what you’re looking for, what personality style you prefer, and anything else that might help us select the best therapist for you. We may have someone in mind, or we may need to do some digging, but regardless, we won’t stop until we find the right one.

What happens after the therapist intake consultation appointment?

Once we’ve heard your history and preferences, we’ll suggest a therapist who is a good fit and help you coordinate a time to get started. Before you arrive, your therapist will be up to speed on all of the information you shared in the intake consultation so you don’t have to repeat yourself. After your first meeting, we’ll check in with you to make sure you felt heard, understood, and want to move forward. If you feel like they are not the proper fit for any reason, then it’s not a problem! We will work with you to find the perfect therapist that fits your therapeutic needs.

But why go to PSYCHē if I can schedule a therapist on my own?

Unfortunately, finding a skilled and likable therapist is harder than it should be. Too often, therapists accept clients simply to fill a gap in their caseload rather than because they are a good fit. There’s so much to know you could write a book about how to find a good therapist! When you are a client of ours, you can relax knowing we’ve done the work for you. We select therapists in a way that no directory or online therapy platform does. Our in-depth screening process involves multiple interviews, role-plays, formal background checks, reference checks, and informal reputation searches. We check on you throughout treatment process to ensure you’re making progress and to make a change if needed. With PSYCHē, you aren’t left to figure things out on your own.

What does PSYCHē look for in a therapist?

We find therapists who are good at what they do, are knowledgeable in their field, and aren’t weird, creepy, or flaky. Our therapists aren’t social media experts, entrepreneurs, researchers, or Ted Talkers. They’re therapists. And because WE’RE therapists too, we know how to screen them. They are Counselors, Psychologists, Neuropsychologists, Marriage & Family therapists, and Clinical Social Workers with different skill sets, hours, rates, and specializations, but all who have passed our rigorous screening.

How will you know what kind of therapist I need?

We know therapy AND therapists. During your first intake, our expert therapist will ask you very specific questions about your history, what you’re looking for, and what you’d like help with. Your answers will tell us a lot about what kind of therapist and therapy will likely be the most helpful. Unless you’re a therapist yourself, it’s hard to keep track of all that’s out there and what different therapists are like. You may think you just need someone to talk to, but maybe there’s a very specialized treatment that would get you better faster than you ever imagined! If you’re not sure whether you need “therapy-therapy,” CBT, DBT, or XYZ therapy, no worries—that’s what we’re here for.

What if I don’t like the therapist or I think we aren’t a good fit?

No problem. If the therapist we place you with is NOT a fit, let us know and we’ll make it right. No starting over from scratch, no telling your story over again, no awkward explanation to them about why you’re quitting. We simply help match you with a different therapist. Give us some feedback on your experience so we can find you a better fit, and we’ll get you headed in the right direction. Your new therapist will be brought up to speed on your situation and history before you arrive so you don’t have to start all over.

Where are you located?

PSYCHē has two main “brick-and-mortar” headquarters in Nashville, TN and Boston, MA, but we contract with therapists all over the country. If you’re looking for someone in your area, let us know and we’ll get to work.

Why don't you take insurance?

We don’t take insurance because we are able to provide better service without it. That doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t use your insurance and get some money back later. Just ask us for a “superbill,” which is a detailed receipt of services. You can send it to your insurance company to see what you can get back, or call your insurance company ahead of time to see how much they would reimburse.

How much are sessions?

Individual sessions vary from $200-$500 depending on the expertise, licensure, and experience of the therapist and whether you need support between sessions. Give us a call or email to find out more.

Psychological testing is a wonderful tool but it isn’t without flaws.

Yes, just about anything can be addressed using psychological testing, but it doesn’t mean everything SHOULD be. Psychological testing isn’t a tarot card reading or a medical lab test. It doesn’t always provide the clear-cut answers people expect.

About PSYCHē

We found your therapist.

Our goal is simple: We want to connect you with your perfect therapist. The first step is to meet online with an expert PSYCHē clinician who knows the right questions to ask to find out what kind of therapist will be the best fit for you. After hearing your history, goals, and what you’re looking for (and NOT looking for!) we go to work getting you scheduled with someone who can help. Why wait? Leave the searching to us.

Our network includes a variety of therapists in multiple states so we can provide our clients with solid, research-based therapies that work. See what we offer:

Here’s why we do what we do:

Finding a good therapist is hard — we should know. We’ve been hiring, training, and supervising therapists since 2009. Not all of them make the cut or stand the test of time. We find good THERAPISTS, not business owners or social media experts, so you get matched with the right clinician the first time. And if it doesn’t work out, we’re here to make it right.

No online directory can make that promise.

A directory tells only part of the story. Just because your neighbor likes someone doesn’t mean they’re a fit for you. The fact is, finding the right therapist can be exhausting. That’s why we’ve done the work for you. Let us pair you with a great therapist. First, book a consultation with one of our in-house therapists who will ask the right questions to find out exactly what you’re looking for. Next, our team of expert clinicians will work their professional magic to pair you with YOUR perfect therapist. The only step left is meeting your therapist and…doing therapy!

You shouldn’t have to find your own therapist.

Sifting through hundreds of therapist profiles online is probably NOT how you want to be spending your time. Word-of-mouth is great, but it’s not always available… and you may not want to see the same therapist as your neighbor or co-worker. We all know that online reviews are biased and the bottom line is, that it can be hard to get an idea of what someone is really like until you actually meet them. That takes work, time, and in the case of therapy, money. We’ve done the work for you so finding a therapist for yourself or a loved one doesn’t have to feel like your second job.

If we don’t have the right therapist, we’ll find the right therapist.

Our goal is to contract with good therapists in every state, each with expertise in specific areas. If there is a therapist you need but we don’t have, give us some time and we’ll locate one. Don’t like the therapist we matched you with? No problem, we’ll find another—and you won’t have to go through the annoyance and hassle of doing another information gathering session. Our job is to find you YOUR therapist so you can do your job and feel better fast.
