Affordable family mental health care
We know that quality mental health care can be expensive and hard to find — especially for kids and teens. Which is why we partner with health plans in an effort to increase access and lower costs.
In-network coverage with select health plans and programs
Brightline therapy, psychiatry, and medication management is available in NY, NJ, CT, MA, and WA. BrightLife Kids coaching is available in CA.
