Medicaid-first online therapy that works with your insurance
Medicaid-first online therapy that works with your insurance
Find a licensed therapist who understands you, takes your Medicaid plan, and is easy to reach by video or phone. You can also use Lavni with Medicare and major commercial plans.
If you rely on Medicaid, Medicare, or an insurance plan like Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, or Cigna, it should not take weeks of phone calls to get help. Lavni helps you find a therapist who is in-network, accepting new clients, and a good fit for what you are going through.
Right now, we support clients in North Carolina, Georgia, and Virginia through online care, and we are adding new states over time.

You do not have to figure this out on your own
Maybe you have already tried calling numbers on the back of your insurance card. One office never calls back, another is not taking new Medicaid clients, and a third puts you on a waitlist with no clear date. By the time you hang up, it is tempting to give up and just push through on your own.
Lavni was built for people in that spot. Our platform is designed around Medicaid first, while still welcoming Medicare and commercial insurance. We help you understand your benefits, match with licensed clinicians who accept your plan, and book sessions that actually fit your life.
So far, more than 2,000 people with Medicaid have used Lavni to connect with 185+ licensed clinicians and complete thousands of therapy sessions. You can learn more about why we built Lavni on our About page.
Who Lavni is for
Lavni focuses on people who want real therapy, paid for by real insurance, without the maze of phone calls and dead ends.
People on Medicaid
If you have Medicaid and are tired of being told "we are not taking new patients," Lavni is for you. We work with therapists who are enrolled with Medicaid plans in your state and understand how to bill them correctly.
People on Medicare or commercial insurance
You can also use Lavni if you have Medicare or a commercial plan like Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, or Cigna. We help you check your benefits so you know what your costs will be before you commit.
Therapists who want an easier way to work with insurance
If you are a therapist, Lavni combines practice management, AI-supported documentation, and automated insurance billing so you can spend more time with clients and less time on paperwork.
Explore Lavni for therapistsWhere we are today
Lavni currently serves clients in:
- • North Carolina
- • Georgia
- • Virginia
Most visits happen online by secure video, so as long as you are physically in one of these states and your therapist is licensed there, you can meet from home, your car on a break, or another private space. As we grow into new states, this list will expand.
Our Insurance Partners
We partner with Medicaid, Medicare, and leading commercial insurers so you can use the benefits you already have to pay for therapy. Many Lavni clients with Medicaid pay between $0 and $3 per session, depending on their plan. Commercial plans and Medicare also often cover a large share of the cost.
Here are some of the plans our clinicians work with:
Why people choose Lavni

Medicaid-first, not Medicaid-last
Most platforms treat Medicaid as an afterthought. Lavni was designed with Medicaid at the center, while still working smoothly with Medicare and major commercial plans. We help you avoid surprise bills and confusing denials.

Licensed clinicians who understand your community
We work with licensed therapists who have experience with trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship stress, and more. Many of them specialize in serving people who have felt overlooked by traditional mental health systems.
Insurance and billing handled for you
Our team and technology help verify your benefits, check your copay, and submit claims behind the scenes. That lets your sessions focus on what you are feeling, instead of what a CPT code means.

Care that fits your life
You can meet your therapist by secure video or phone. You will be able to send messages between sessions, track goals together, and make adjustments as your life changes.
