Why Raleigh Residents Choose Lavni
Sarah from North Raleigh had been trying to find a therapist for months. Her daughter was struggling with anxiety at NC State, and Sarah's own depression was getting worse after her divorce. Every practice she called either didn't take Medicaid or had a 3-month waitlist.
"I called 12 different therapists in Raleigh," Sarah says. "Half didn't even call me back when I mentioned Medicaid. The others said maybe they'd have an opening in the spring."
With Lavni, Sarah and her daughter both had therapists within a week. Sarah's sessions cost $0 with her AmeriHealth Caritas plan. Her daughter pays $3 per session. They can book evening appointments that work around school and work schedules.
"It's the first time I've felt like having Medicaid wasn't a barrier," Sarah explains. "My therapist gets it. She's worked with other single moms dealing with the same stuff."
This is what therapy should look like. No insurance hassles, no months of waiting, no judgment about your coverage. Find Your Therapist
