At Two Chairs, we believe great therapy begins with a good match. That’s why we’re focused on hiring world class therapists and invested in creating the very best matching process.
Our diverse team of therapists are trained at some of the best programs in the country, and as employees (not contractors), are supported to make sure they provide you with the very best care.
Finding a therapist you connect with can be challenging, but we make it easy. In your 45 minute matching appointment, a licensed clinician will assess your needs and preferences to help us identify the therapist best suited for you.
Currently, all therapy sessions are virtual, but once it’s safe to open our doors again, we’ll provide in-person, virtual, and hybrid sessions—whatever is most convenient for you.
The process of paying for therapy through insurance can be confusing and complicated, which is why we provide free insurance consultations and can usually submit insurance claims on your behalf. We are here to make it easy for you to navigate paying for therapy.
“Therapy allows us to take care of ourselves. An hour a week just to focus on you and your needs. That in and of itself is radical.”
We care deeply about investing in, and supporting our therapists to give you the best care. Therapists at Two Chairs receive weekly clinical consultation, ongoing professional development, and a company-wide support system so that when you show up for sessions, they are fully prepared to be with you.

Tell us a little about yourself and schedule your in-depth matching appointment.
Your matching appointment is your first step in care - you’ll talk with one of our licensed therapists about yourself and your goals for therapy. We use this time to deeply understand who you are and to tease out what you need from therapy.
Based on what we’ve learned about you from your matching appointment, we find you the right match with one of our therapists. You’ll receive an email from us once we’ve made the match - often within just a few days!
We’ve used cutting-edge psychotherapy research to create our matching methodology. Our matching process takes a bunch of factors into account to ensure the most personalized care for you:
What’s bringing you in
What you want to get out of care
How you want your therapist to work with you
How you identify (e.g age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc.)
Previous care received and outcome
Individual and family mental and physical health
Location and schedule that works best for you
If we can’t match you with a therapist who meets your needs and goals, and you choose not to engage in care, we will refund your matching appointment. No questions asked.
Once it’s safe to reopen, our clinics will be available to anyone who wishes to have in-person sessions. We’ve put a lot of thought into designing sanctuaries that promote belonging for all of our clients and provide the space to focus on you.
All of our sessions are currently conducted virtually - and we’ve put time into ensuring a seamless experience. Even once our clinics reopen, you can continue to attend all of your sessions virtually if that’s your preference.
We know that life can get busy and flexibility is important - once our clinics reopen, you’ll have the option of a blend of virtual and in-person care if that’s what works best for you.

Currently, Two Chairs offers psychotherapy services to those over the age of 18 living in California. While we don’t currently offer psychiatric or adolescent services, our therapists can help work with outside providers for your care.
Research shows that the therapeutic alliance between you and your therapist is the best predictor of successful treatment outcome. Psychologists define the therapeutic alliance as the strength of the therapist and client relationship and how aligned you are on goals. Once you have developed a strong therapeutic alliance with your therapist, studies show that individuals are more productive at work, have more fulfilled relationships, can cope more effectively with daily stressors, and engage in less risky behaviors.
The 45-minute matching appointment is a conversation with one of our licensed therapists who we refer to as the consult clinician.
During the matching appointment, your consult clinician will work with you to identify your needs and preferences for therapy, and your scheduling availability. This appointment augments the information gathered from your Two Chairs profile and provides an opportunity for you to discuss personal questions or concerns you may have about therapy or receiving care at Two Chairs. Based on your conversation, your consult clinician will recommend a therapist who's a good fit based on your needs, goals, and preferences.
We believe that we can help you make meaningful progress towards your goals and we strongly believe we can match you to a therapist that will fit your needs. If we can't match you to a therapist that meets your needs and goals, and you choose not to engage in care, we will refund your matching appointment.
To be eligible for a refund, you must have attended the matching appointment and been matched with a therapist. However, if you have been significantly delayed in receiving a match, or are unable to be matched based on your needs or preferences for care, you can also request a refund.
Refunds cannot be provided to clients who begin care. Clients who begin care and are dissatisfied can be rematched at no charge to the client; however, attended sessions will not be refunded. We want your experience with Two Chairs to be a meaningful step on your care journey, and we will make every effort to rematch you if you are dissatisfied after starting care.
Two Chairs is an out-of-network provider, meaning that we are not contracted to work with any insurance companies. However, if you have a PPO plan, you may be eligible for reimbursement for a portion of the costs of care once you meet your out-of-network deductible. While we cannot guarantee reimbursement, enrolling in Two Chairs Insurance Support ensures you are not alone in dealing with insurance companies. A member of our dedicated Care Coordination team can help you understand your benefits and we’ll do everything we can to support you through the process. Schedule a call with us for more information about your specific plan.
When you sign up for your initial matching appointment, you can choose to enroll in Two Chairs Insurance Support. By providing us your most up-to-date insurance information in your Two Chairs profile, we’ll have everything we need to get started and in most cases, we’ll be able to submit your out-of-network claims on your behalf!
