The MyWellbeing service is free for seekers who are interested in beginning therapy or coaching. We offer you three matches at a time to be as anxiety-reducing and intentional as possible. Your matches also offer you a free phone consultation so you can gauge your fit together in a low-risk, no-cost way.
Should your fit not feel right for any reason, we are happy to facilitate additional connections. We will work with you through as many connections as you need to feel safe moving forward.
Like any investment, therapy and coaching call for a financial and emotional commitment. We work with top providers to provide access to their services at pre-negotiated rates, which can be as accessible as 70% less than their rates outside of MyWellbeing. Generally, practitioners we work with offer therapy/coaching at rates between $100-$300/session. The average fee in NY and CA, for example, is $200/session.
At this time, we specialize in matchmaking outside of insurance. We work hard to provide the most accessible, high-quality care for you. Please learn more about why your therapist may not accept insurance and “out of network” benefits here.

You may be eligible to be reimbursed 50-100% of the cost of each session by your insurance, especially if you use a PPO plan, depending on your specific benefits. For example, if the therapist fee is $175, you may only owe $35-$87. Learn more about Out of Network benefits here.

During COVID-19 and beyond, many providers are available for virtual care. The licensing regulations for therapy specifically still apply. You can choose with your provider match whether you stay remote indefinitely or whether you’d like to weave in-person visits into your routine when it’s safe to do so.
MyWellbeing uses a careful matching process to ensure you are paired with the most compatible fit. We consider:

During your first session, your provider will be getting to know you. They will likely ask questions about what has brought you to the room, including your past and present. Together, you will explore goals for your work moving forward.
If you have specific goals, if you've seen a therapist or coach before and have a sense of what did or did not work, or you have fears or hesitations about therapy or coaching, your first session is a great opportunity to share this information with your provider.
The most important thing to remember? Trust yourself. Therapy and coaching are spaces you can be honest, with your provider and with yourself. It's important to find a good fit. We (and your provider) are here to help you feel safe, seen, and heard.
Safety is an important factor in care. Sometimes, it takes time for this sense of safety to grow. It's important to feel safe sharing with your provider.
In your first few sessions, ask yourself:
