How does Cerebral work?

Cerebral offers online psychiatry and therapy provided by mental health professionals to help treat a wide range of mental health conditions.
• When you sign up, you’ll choose whether you are interested in medication, therapy, or both.
• Then you can see all available therapists or prescribers licensed in your state, and choose who you’d like to work with. Most clients are happy with their first choice, but you can switch anytime for any reason.
• Once you choose a therapist or prescriber, you can see their availability and book your first session. Most clients are able to meet with someone within 3 days of signing up.
• Your intake session includes a professional evaluation and personalized treatment plan, if diagnosed.
• If you meet with a prescriber, you’ll work with them to determine if medication is appropriate for you. If so, you’ll get a prescription sent to the pharmacy of your choice. Prescriptions filled by CerebralRx, Cerebral’s in-house pharmacy, include free expedited shipping directly to your door.
• You’ll continue to meet with your prescriber or therapist for support and to keep making progress toward your goals.

I’m in a better place physically and mentally since being with Cerebral. Everyone around me notices the difference. I have the best Counselor. The Physician that I talked to about my anxiety introduced me to a medication that actually works. I’m blessed.
