My therapist is extremely kind, human-centered, engaged, and invested. I don’t feel like a transactional client, but rather, a human.
Octave Patient
Octave and the therapists are amazing. Everything from billing and scheduling, to the actual care, has been phenomenal.
Octave Patient
I’ve had such an impossibly hard time — for the past eight years — finding a therapist both in my network and who I bond with. When I signed up for Octave, they provided me with an amazing in-network therapist within a day. This is truly life changing!
Octave Patient
From the thoughtful intake, ease of dealing with insurance and on top of it one of the most thorough and eye opening therapy I have ever received — I cannot recommend Octave enough.
