Anise is reimagining mental health for the Asian community by providing personalized online interventions that acknowledge cultural context & address your intersectional needs.

The Anise approach

Holistic care model

We offer a range of culturally-adapted, tele-mental health services to address your complex wellbeing needs, no matter how big or small.

Data-driven treatment

We create a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your specific experiences and use clinically-approved progress measures to monitor your growth.

Culturally-responsive providers

We instantly match you to licensed therapists and certified health coaches who are trained in cultural sensitivity to deliver high-quality care.

Community oriented

We provide easy online access to curated resources and a community of individuals with shared lived experiences to maintain long-term wellbeing.

An integrated approach to mental health that works

Solving the mental health equity crisis requires updating treatment models to account for intersectionality and individualized needs. Prioritizing cultural competence in counseling should be top of mind for every care provider.

That’s why we do what we do - and it’s working.

96% of clients felt “heard and understood” vs. 54% with existing standard of care

93% of clients improve by Week 8 vs. 68% using a one-size-fits-all app

If you don’t see your plan or have questions about whether we accept your insurance, our team is happy to help you figure it out! Just send us an email at info@anisehealth.co

Your treatment is tailored to your needs. You and your therapist will collaborate to figure out what works best for you. That could look like meeting once a week, every two weeks, or even multiple times a week if you need.
As you continue your care, you can discuss whether to adjust how often you’ll meet and change your schedule if it makes sense.

Coaching is a separate offering that you can add as part of your care. Coaching is a useful way to build new habits, manage daily routines, or get more hands-on support between therapy sessions. To ensure a seamless experience, your coach works closely with your therapist to provide fully integrated care. You can book your coaching sessions directly through the Patient Portal for a flat fee of $30 per session.

Anise supports a wide range of emotional and life challenges, especially those shaped by cultural identity. Clients often seek care for stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, family tension, imposter syndrome, and navigating cultural expectations. Our diverse providers offer therapy and coaching that’s tailored to your lived experience.

Note: We currently do not offer medication management, couples/family therapy, or in-person care.

We are confident in our providers’ abilities to meet your needs, but understand that not everyone is a perfect fit! If you’d like to try another intake session, we will help you meet with a different provider at no additional cost.
