Biggest waste of time Please, please, PLEASE don't waste your time with them if you are seriously in need of help. As someone else mentioned, they have you fill out an intake form (once you've already made your appointment), then will reach out and cancel it a few days later based on how you answer the intake form. I also was looking for help with anxiety and depression, which they say they treat, yet was denied service. I don't know who runs this place or makes the policies but they need to hire someone else.

I really felt cared for and supported… I really felt cared for and supported during my time with my Lavender provider. Plus booking online and having video sessions were way more convenient for my lifestyle. I found when I was doing in person sessions I would end up canceling because the commute, parking situation and waiting room was just too much to be bothered with. This made it seamless and I could focus on what I wanted to talk about.

I didn't even get to go to my initial, they're frauds I didn't even get to go to my initial, THey're frauds. I paid 150 out right for a provider without insurance, and they are scamming people to pay 125 a session claiming that their bill is $300 for an hour. they are thieves. the girl said her supervisor would call me back but then I couldn't get thru. They cancelled my appointment and I still haven't received a call from the supervisor (in an hour like she said). These people don't want to help, they're cons that only care about money. interestingly, my insurance says they charge $0-$75 for co-pays. So not only are they going to bill insurance, but they are making us pay full price for a session out of pocket. I paid $50 my last provider in-network and $150 full price (No ins/out of network/ out of pocket provider). Spread the word, Do not book with them. They're reviews and costs are inflated to make then seem high value, but they're really thieves and insurance leaches. I uploaded my credit card information. they better not charge it considering they cancelled my appointment.

The company is not what they claim I wish I could say I was a new patient . I wasn’t. I have been with them for 3 years. They say they specialize in anxiety, panic disorder, depression and medication management . Dr. Gannon their Yale graduate co-founder claims in her Headway profile the company she co-founded is always transparent . Sadly after 3 years of being a patient there with the same NP, because she placed me on a new medication that caused my condition to worsen and filing a complaint . Their solution was to discharge me as a client. Medication management? Ummm...! Full transparency? They wanted me to go get a liver and kidney function lab work done! I agreed! Let’s see if I am able to be placed on this new medication they were suggesting. I’m at the point of desperation at this point because the last medication really made my condition worse. I was on Paxil for a year but it just slowly stopped working. Put me on Venflaxine 6 weeks later .... I couldn’t stop having anxiety attacks ! So hence the lab work order to see if I could be put on an new medication they felt would help. I look at the lab place they want me to go to ....on google to try to get an appointment. The lab says they specialize in drug testing. Hmmmm... that’s interesting! Not that I care! I’m going for a liver and kidney function test. Then I look at the lab form they gave me... sure enough... a full 8 panel drug test is ordered on there with the other test. “ Transparency “? I do not use drugs! The only drugs that enter my body are those specifically prescribed for me! At this point yes... I do question it! Why am I being drug tested? Their answer was simple.... because we can!!! Ok... that’s fine too! But where was the transparency??? So I emailed them to ask about why I was suddenly being drug tested. Surely there must be a reason. After all they are even sending me to a lab that specializes in drug testing. They had my NP ( nurse practitioner) call me back and all she had to say about this was... I forgot to tell you. Ok but why are you requesting it? I filed a complaint about my med .... that’s the reason. In my opinion she just didn’t want to look like the blame for giving me a med that made my condition worse. One of the major side effects of this med .... is ANXIETY! Ummmm???? Hello??? Anyone there? Knock knock! Also... do not ever think you can call or email this place and directly speak to your NP. Not going to happen! Unless you slap that insurance card down or cash to pay. They have a concierges team that deals with you as a distant entity! ( I say distant because it can take 2 days at this point to even get a real human response... even their answering machine says that) ( never used to be that way... you would get a human response or answering on the phone right away) so if your issue is major, in regards to THEIR care or you have a concern or complaint... don’t be surprised if you cannot reach a human for a while. It was all good while Covid was media prevalent. Now.... they are fully out of tune with what patients needs are. If you just need someone to talk to... lonely... have a slight anxiety or depression.... no problem! If you want real therapy ... I can honestly say I never received that. They just smile and nod in the camera.... give you meds they hope will work ( in my case) and so long as you don’t have a single complaint ( in my case) about that med, they will probably be a good fit for you. Other than that... do yourself a favor... keep scrolling! As a Law Graduate I know that I can be held liable for perjury if I am not telling the truth , as well as defamation. So I assure you... every word I have said here is true!

awful I initially chose Lavender because I found the provider and liked their background and specialties. I liked that I could book online, and they took my insurance. Then so many things went wrong. My provider repeatedly canceled sessions last minute. When the concierge called to cancel a THIRD appointment in a row, I was given a reschedule date for over a month away. I was for some reason no longer able to book online and got no reason as to why. I work night shift and booking online is very helpful for me as it is challenging to call and schedule during business hours. They also were prescribing me medication that I had to stop taking since I had no one to help me determine if it was even working. When I emailed them to let them know I was no longer interested in continuing my care there (since they were canceling my appointments anyway) and that because of the situation would likely not try to find a new provider at all, I didn’t get any response other than a document shared with me that I was “discharged from service”. I feel like as a MENTAL HEALTH SERVICE, they should be much more concerned about their patients’ mental health.
