Cerebral is an online mental health care provider that offers 1-on-1 therapy, couples therapy, and medication prescription service plans. Plans include regular virtual sessions with our qualified and compassionate therapists and prescribers — as well as personalized treatment plans, progress tracking, and goal setting. We offer long or short-term care, and have worked to make our costs as low as possible for our clients.
Cerebral treats many mental health conditions, including:
anxiety, depression, insomnia, postpartum depression, menopausal depression, ADHD (in certain states), trauma and PTSD, bipolar disorder (in certain states), alcohol dependence (in certain states).
We can also support: relationship issues and divorce, stress management, anger management, LGBTQI+ experiences, grief and loss, traumatic life events, confidence and self-esteem, phobias, coping with illnesses.
What is Cerebral’s mission?
Our mission is to democratize access to high-quality mental health care for all.
Factors like cost, convenience, and fear of judgment can sometimes make getting high quality mental healthcare difficult.
We call our approach to care the Cerebral Way — an intentional program we established to give our clients a clearer way to understand their progress and mental health goals.
Mental health is not linear and results happen differently for everyone over time. We believe starting with a clear plan is an important part of long-term improvement.
The Cerebral Way includes: a personalized treatment plan, goal setting (typically only therapy), monthly assessments, progress tracking.
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.
We have therapists and medication prescribers licensed in every U.S. state, including Washington D.C.
Therapists and prescribers can only provide care to clients who are residents of states where they are licensed. Scheduling capacity and availability for individual therapists and medication prescribers may vary depending on location. Find a therapist in my state Find a prescriber in my state
How do I track my progress?
Our program is built to help you see your progress over time. You’ll work with your prescriber and/or therapist to build a personalized treatment plan. About once a month, we’ll also send you a regular mental health assessment to check in about how you’re feeling. You can keep track of your results of these assessments over time in the Progress section of your account.
Do I get to choose my therapist or prescriber?
Yes. After you sign up and choose a service, you’ll see all available therapists or prescribers who are licensed in your state.
From there, you can learn a bit about each one and see when they’re available to meet. Once you find someone you want to work with, you can book a session. Most of our clients are able to meet with someone within 3 days of signing up. See available therapists in your state See available prescribers in your state
I joined Cerebral about 3 years ago. I was hopeless, depressed and suicidal. Cerebral saved my life. If you have anxiety or depression, you will find an incredible support system here. The staff truly cares.
