Grow Therapy is a directory of independent therapists and prescribers who accept insurance. You pick your state and insurance, and the search shows therapists available virtually across the whole state, or you can switch the filter to find someone in person near your address. Grow says sessions cost $21 on average with insurance, and when booking you verify coverage with your member ID. If your plan is not listed you can choose cash, and each therapist shows their own appointment cost on their profile, so self-pay prices vary from person to person. Grow also offers medication support, so therapy and prescriptions can happen in one place without repeating your story. Profiles are grouped by specialty, such as anxiety, family and parenting, Spanish-speaking care and support for veterans, which makes it easy to look for a specific fit. There is no messaging plan, and because cash rates differ by therapist, we could not confirm one starting price.
