Therapist application

Put the facts on the table.

A useful directory begins with what a person can verify: your California credential, where you work, what you charge, and whether you have room. We do not ask for testimonials or stories about clients.

The whole price list$50 a month

Month to month. No annual plan. No tiers. No per-county pricing. No founding rate that expires into something worse. No per-lead fee. No paid placement. Nothing is charged until a verified profile is published.

You may leave or hide the profile. Nothing is charged until the verified profile is published.
