Millions of people start and then stop mental health treatment after only a few sessions because they don’t make a solid connection with the right professional. Unfortunately, many give up and never try again. This frustrating and costly process wastes everyone resources: consumers, professionals, and insurers alike.
We know you want someone to help you with your specific issues, preferably an expert in those issues. And you want someone you can connect with, someone whose personality suits yours. But the current ways people seek mental health treatment, such as through provider directories or blind, word-of-mouth referrals from physicians and friends, are both archaic and incredibly inefficient. A list of "providers" doesn't help you tell them apart, and a referral you get from someone who knows only one or two therapists isn’t really much of a choice.
So, as mental health practitioners, we designed the Agora Mental Health Network®. It's a modern, transparent marketplace, a platform purposely built for professionals to showcase their skills and personality so that you can really get to know them and meaningfully compare them. Only then can you choose the professional with the expertise and working style that best fits your needs. And in a transparent marketplace, it’s all on display, fees and all.
Your health is your responsibility and so are your healthcare choices. Our mission is to give you the information you need to choose confidently. After all, the right choice for you is the one you make for yourself.
