Holistic approach willing to follow the path and support the path the body and mind are on. Open, loving, authentic, real. I met her when I was somewhat embodied, but from working with her can see that she’d be able to guide you on that journey if needed

Getting the help that I need

I'm getting the help that I need and I'm feeling a huge difference from where I was before I started therapy. And the fact that my insurance covers the treatment is a huge bonus.

Octave was great from the start... From helping verify that my insurance covered my sessions and clearly informing me of my co-pay per session; no hidden fees; has a pool of great therapists and did a great job of matching me to 2 awesome clinicians; regular follow-up surveys; and just overall great customer service!

I have been seeing Dr.Horner for over 1.5 yrs . I have found him to be incredibly compassionate and easy to talk to. I feel that I am in safe space that allowed me to open up, which I haven’t felt with other providers.
He listens to me and has helped me so much. I’m very grateful for him.

Extremely qualified professionals

My therapist was extremely kind, empathic and professional. She listened to me and helped with my issues. I felt so empowered after our sessions. I’d participate in therapy on the regular, if it was not so expensive.

Great therapists

Great therapists. Great behind the scenes team. The behind the scenes team is EXCELLENT—they are warm and professional. I switched therapists due to my schedule changing—that therapist was really good, and my time with her helped me out. The second one is phenomenal. My life is transforming. Thank you, Octave!

Do better, octave!

My therapist was fabulous, but after a few months of therapy, I got notified that octave wasn’t taking my insurance any more, and if I wanted to continue with my therapist, I’d have to pay $180 per session out of pocket! Way to screw with someone’s stability!

Hi Erika - Thank you for sharing this feedback. We are so sorry for the stress and frustration this has caused. We know how important a consistent relationship with your therapist is to your well-being, and it’s never our goal to see that stability interrupted. While changes in insurance coverage can happen unexpectedly and are usually outside of our control, we want to help you find a path forward. Please reach out to our Support Team so we can provide a referral to one of our partners who may accept your current plan.
