Couch Clarity

Couch Clarity is a private mental health practice that believes in the strength and courage it takes to seek mental health care. We are dedicated to empowering our clients and guiding them through meaningful and positive change. Our mission is to support our clients in creating a more pleasant, productive, and safer living space for themselves and their communities. We strive to destigmatize seeking mental health enrichment and provide our unique services to communities throughout the nation.

Our compassionate and relatable staff are committed to creating a judgment-free zone where clients can work on what is most important to them. We understand that self-acceptance and willingness to make positive changes are crucial in releasing the energy to practice self-care and embody one's deepest sense of personal power. Our team of caring and compassionate therapists has a wide range of skills and specialties, and we work a variety of hours, including evenings, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Our Services

Couch Clarity offers individual, couples, family, and group therapy, as well as walk and talk therapy. We have many therapists on our team who are eager to meet your individual needs. We believe that seeking mental health care is a sign of strength, and we are here to support you through meaningful and positive change.

Our traditional "on the couch" psychotherapy is a safe and comfortable space for clients to work through their life's issues in a positive way with the help of a therapist. Our group workshops provide a supportive and encouraging atmosphere for clients to connect with others who are going through similar experiences. Walk and talk therapy allows clients to get some fresh air and exercise while discussing their mental health concerns.

We are in-network for most BCBS PPO plans and we accept out of network plans. We also accept self-pay and offer flexible payment options, including cash, check, Visa / Discover / MasterCard, and HSA.
