How Anise works

The first thing you’ll do during onboarding is review your personalized therapist matches and select one to do an intake session with! If you're not satisfied, we will help you meet with a different therapist at no additional cost.

From there, you’ll meet with your therapist regularly to make progress toward your goals.

You can book health coaching sessions to build new habits, manage daily routines, and get more hands-on support between therapy sessions.

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.

Health 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.
