Emergency Assistance

We do not provide acute or crisis services. Telehealth is not usually a good fit for those who are in extreme distress. We only respond to messages when our office is open and within 1-2 business days. If you are in crisis at this time, please go to your nearest emergency room or call 911. If you need to talk to someone, call or text #988 for the national hotline.

Thanks so much for your request. We're so glad you're here.

We specialize in working with high-achieving professionals in business, law, and medicine as well as entrepreneurs, athletes, creatives, and students 18+ who are ready for change and looking for so much more out of life, love, and work.

We are fiercely committed to providing next-level, transformative therapy rooted in science and research that emphasizes taking consistent values-based action. We also believe in being not only a trusted thought partner to our clients but also their champion.

Because our clients need cutting-edge wellness options that optimize their time, offer location flexibility, and are uniquely tailored to their needs:

All of our psychologists have PhDs in clinical psychology representing the highest education and training in our field
Our practice is 100% online using a HIPAA-secure telehealth platform and portal
Our psychologists are all members of PSYPACT, so we can work with clients in over 39 states

Please check out our INVESTMENT FAQ for any questions on rates, insurance, and payment and our GENERAL FAQ for everything else.

Physical Location for Online Telepsychology Services

I acknowledge that I must be physically located in one of the states above for all sessions.

If you are physically located in a non-PSYPACT state or a foreign country, your session would need to be rescheduled, subject to late cancellation fees. If you are from a foreign country, you must be in a US PSYPACT state for all sessions.

I understand that all therapy and assessment services are offered exclusively online.

Most of our clients are busy professionals and graduate students who don't want to commute for services and many live in other states. If you are looking for in-person services, please let us know, and we will try to connect you with resources.

Note on Psychologist Availability

Currently, none of our providers have availability on Mondays. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Dr. Newman is also a board certified coach and does executive performance coaching and usually has 1 opening per month. If you think that coaching would be a better fit for your needs, please apply for coaching here. Not sure of the difference between therapy and coaching? Please read this article.

A key predictor of success in therapy is the fit between the client and therapist. Please tell us what you're looking for in a therapist.

Some things people have mentioned include things like: warm, funny, certain training, expertise, or using certain type of treatment, certain cultural experiences or knowledge even things like getting art, pop culture, or football references. Check out our article on how to find the right therapist and questions you can ask a therapist.

Here are the top THREE things that I'm looking for in a therapist

I understand that neither scheduling or completing an intake is a guarantee for continued services.

In your first session, we hope you will discuss your primary goals for treatment and get all the information you need to make sure that your therapist is the best fit for you. Our psychologists must also ensure that they are the best fit for you on multiple levels. For instance, although all of our providers are highly-skilled in working with high-achieving people, some may have more experience working with certain disorders like PTSD or certain modalities (e.g., exposure and response prevention or ERP for OCD) than others. If you provide those details below, it will help us ensure you are matched with the best therapist for you. However, please be aware that if a client discloses different information in their intake questionnaire, we may need to make a referral. Also, if a client presents in session in crisis or with a serious mental health issue (e.g., manic or psychotic episode), then telehealth isn't appropriate, and we would need to refer for crisis or other services as needed.

Full payment is due at the time of service, and a credit card must remain on file at all times. A superbill will be provided for out-of-network reimbursement from your insurer, or so you can file through a company like Reimbursify. The practice does not assist with the filing or coverage of claims. We also accept some HSA cards.
