Anise is reimagining mental health for the Asian community by providing personalized online interventions that acknowledge cultural context & address your intersectional needs.

The Anise approach

Holistic care model

We offer a range of culturally-adapted, tele-mental health services to address your complex wellbeing needs, no matter how big or small.

Data-driven treatment

We create a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your specific experiences and use clinically-approved progress measures to monitor your growth.

Culturally-responsive providers

We instantly match you to licensed therapists and certified behavioral coaches who are trained in cultural sensitivity to deliver high-quality care.

Community oriented

We provide easy online access to curated resources and a community of individuals with shared lived experiences to maintain long-term wellbeing.

An integrated approach to mental health that works

Solving the mental health equity crisis requires updating treatment models to account for intersectionality and individualized needs. Prioritizing cultural competence in counseling should be top of mind for every care provider.
That’s why we do what we do - and it’s working.

On average, insurance clients will pay a ~$25 co-pay per session if we’re in-network but we recommend contacting your plan for the most accurate estimate. For self-pay clients, sessions are ~$65 on average (billed monthly). At the end of each month, your care team will help you decide whether to stick with your current care plan or switch to one that better addresses your latest needs.
For self-pay subscriptions, the intake appointment costs $99 and comes with a satisfaction guarantee. That means that if you’d like to try another intake session, we will help you meet with a different provider at no additional cost.

Self-pay subscriptions are eligible for HSA, FSA, and out-of-network benefits.
It will vary based on the care plan you are on. It could range from having 1 therapy session per month and 1 coaching session per month (Integrated-Lite track) all the way to weekly therapy sessions (Deep-Dive track). It all comes down to what best addresses your needs.
Coaching is included with most of our care plans to help you take a more actionable approach to your therapy goals and see progress. The amount of therapy and coaching will depend on the care plan; the Deep-Dive track is the only care plan that does not include coaching and is primarily for clients with more severe needs. At the end of each month, your care team will help you decide whether to stick with your current care plan or switch to one that better addresses your latest needs.
Anise supports a wide range of emotional and life challenges, especially those shaped by cultural identity. Clients often seek care for stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, family tension, imposter syndrome, and navigating cultural expectations. Our diverse providers offer therapy and coaching that’s tailored to your lived experience.

Note: We currently do not offer medication management, couples/family therapy, or in-person care.
We are confident in our providers’ abilities to meet your needs, but understand that not everyone is a perfect fit! If you’d like to try another intake session, we will help you meet with a different provider at no additional cost.
