Find a Therapist Who Truly Understands You

What they do
A licensed therapist provides talk-based mental health support in a confidential, professional setting. They are trained to diagnose mental health conditions, help you process emotions, navigate relationships, heal from trauma, and develop healthier thought patterns and coping tools.

What to expect
Sessions are typically 50 minutes, held weekly or biweekly. Your therapist will create a treatment plan tailored to your needs and goals. Most therapists work through a specific modality — like CBT, narrative therapy, or EMDR — and many in our directory specialize in trauma, identity, and racial stress.

This might be right for you if…
You’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma
You want consistent, structured support over time
You’re processing racial trauma, cultural identity, or family wounds
You’ve tried healing alone and want a trained guide

Insurance: Many licensed therapists accept insurance. Check individual profiles for details.

What they do
A psychiatrist is a medical doctor specializing in mental health. Unlike therapists, psychiatrists can diagnose mental health conditions and prescribe medication. Many also provide therapy, though some focus primarily on medication management.

What to expect
Your first appointment is typically a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation — a deep conversation about your mental health history, symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. From there, your psychiatrist will recommend a treatment plan that may include medication, therapy, or both.

This might be right for you if…
You’re experiencing symptoms that may benefit from medication (depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, anxiety disorders, etc.)
You’ve been in therapy but feel you need additional support
You want a thorough mental health evaluation
You’re looking to review or adjust current medications

Insurance: Psychiatrists often accept insurance. Always verify before booking.

What they do
A licensed massage therapist uses therapeutic touch to release tension, reduce pain, improve circulation, and support the nervous system’s ability to rest and regulate. Beyond physical relief, massage can be a profound act of care for a body that has carried stress, trauma, and the weight of daily survival — often without pause.

What to expect
Sessions typically range from 60 to 90 minutes. Your therapist will ask about your physical health, areas of tension or discomfort, and any trauma history that may be relevant to how you receive touch. You’ll have full control over pressure, draping, and boundaries throughout the session. Many therapists in our directory are trained in modalities like Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial release, prenatal massage, or culturally specific bodywork traditions.

This might be right for you if…
You carry chronic tension, pain, or tightness in your body
You’re healing from physical injury or postural stress
You want a body-based practice that supports nervous system regulation
You rarely receive intentional, caring touch — and your body is asking for it
You’re complementing therapy or somatic work with physical release

Note: For those with trauma histories, receiving touch can bring up complex feelings. Many massage therapists in our directory are trauma-informed and will move at your pace, honor your boundaries without question, and create an environment where you are always in control.

Insurance: Some plans cover massage therapy, particularly for medically documented conditions. Check with your provider and individual practitioner.
