How does it work?

You pay $50 ONE TIME to access their full roster of licensed therapists. Then, you shop around for the right specialty and therapy method. When you have a therapist chosen – contact them and make arrangements. You’ll negotiate an hourly rate and set up your first appointment.

Other worries?

What do I consider a reasonable rate? I pay $30 per session. Yeah.

If you decide they aren’t the right therapist for you – no worries, just pick again. Find your match.

Is it legit?

Yep, I’ve been using it for over a year and a half now and recommended it to many folks. My therapist is a BA – she works for Emory full time and has her own private practice on the side.

Open Path is the only reason I can afford to see such a highly trained professional trauma therapist. Or any therapist. I don’t know where I would be if I hadn’t discovered this option.
