FAQs
How can therapy help me?
Therapy provides a supportive space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. With the guidance of a trained therapist, you can develop tools to manage anxiety, process trauma, improve relationships, and feel more grounded in daily life.
Do I really need therapy? I can usually handle my problems.
Many people seek therapy not because they can’t cope, but because they’re tired of coping alone. Therapy can help you gain clarity, relief, and support — even if you’ve managed on your own in the past.
What issues do you help with?
We help with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, identity concerns, OCD, grief, relationship issues, substance misuse, and more. Our intake team will help match you with a therapist experienced in your specific concerns.
What can I expect from my first session?
You’ll begin with a short intake call where our team learns about your concerns and preferences. Once matched, your first therapy session focuses on building rapport, understanding your goals, and deciding how to move forward together.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes. Live Better Psych accepts insurance, and our intake team will help verify your benefits before you begin therapy.
We currently work with many major plans, including:
- Aetna
- Anthem Blue Cross
- BCBS
- Cigna
- Managed Health Network
- Health Net
- UC SHIP (including Irvine, UCSD, UCLA, and more)
Coverage can vary by plan and provider, so during your intake call we’ll review your benefits and explain any potential out-of-pocket costs before matching you with a therapist.
Is online therapy as effective as in-person sessions?
Yes. Online therapy is a proven, effective option for many concerns, including anxiety, depression, and trauma. It offers flexibility while maintaining the same level of professional care.
How do I get started?

Fantastic! Brady does an excellent job of helping me identify the core issues bothering me and helping me treat these areas. I’ve had great success using the techniques he taught me and feel more at peace and comfortable with my past and present. I highly recommend Brady to anybody who needs somebody to talk to in therapy.
Brady is truly an amazing leader and counselor. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to change their lives and seeking freedom. He is empathetic, kind and seeks to understand those he serves. As I met with Brady for sessions, and was part of a team he lead, I learned about what grace truly means and how to give grace to others. Under his guidance and leadership I became a better person and a much better leader.
