Yes. The Therapy Collective participates in the Aetna network. Because benefits can vary by plan, we’ll help you understand the next steps for verifying your coverage before beginning therapy.

Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your individual benefits, including any applicable copay, coinsurance, or deductible. As an in-network provider, we do not charge Aetna members above the contracted rate for covered services beyond their applicable cost-sharing responsibility

Yes. We offer secure teletherapy in NY and NJ, making it easier to fit therapy into your schedule from the privacy and comfort of your own space.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before reaching out. Our therapists work with concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationships, identity, neurodivergence, perfectionism, burnout, life transitions, parenting, and more.

You can explore the therapists above to learn about their specialties and approaches. If you’re unsure who might be the best fit, reach out and we can help connect you with a clinician based on what you’re looking for and your availability

The first session is a time for you and your therapist to get to know one another. Your therapist may ask questions about your past and current relationships. They may explore the present, your work, health, social life, family relationships, hobbies, etc. They will listen to what’s hard, what hurts, or what gets in the way of you living your best life. Usually this session is an important time to try and understand the reason you seek therapy. The first meeting is also a good time to go over any questions you have about your therapist or the process.

You don’t have to be in crisis for therapy to be worthwhile. Therapy may be right for you if anxiety, stress, or recurring patterns in relationships are starting to affect your sleep, mood, work, or sense of yourself or if you simply want more clarity and ease in your life. A consultation is a low-pressure way to explore fit: you can ask questions, share a bit about what you’re noticing, and get a sense of whether a particular therapist and approach feel like a good match. When it doesn’t, we readily help you explore other options. We have a diverse team of professionals to ensure all clients can find their ideal clinician!

Yes. At The Therapy Collective, finding the right clinical fit is one of our highest priorities. We encourage you to schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation with one or more clinicians so you can get a feel for their approach, ask questions, and decide who may be the best fit for your needs.

Once you submit our inquiry form, our team will guide you through this process. If you decide after a consultation that you'd like to explore a different style or specialty, our reception team will help you pivot smoothly. Our Clinical Director is also here to support you every step of the way.
