Cerebral - Mental Health

I was Skeptical at first (online scammers are real sneaky) but after 6 months I am now a full believer. After years of judgemental GP doctors hesitant to even prescribe a tiny dose of ADHD medication due to the professional and social stigma plus the ongoing care involved. They tend to tell you to find a “specialist” and send you on your way but anyone that knows this frustrating journey knows that the specialists do not take *YOUR* health plan or they have a huge waiting list so you might as well just give up & continue running around your own head spinning those mental plates hoping they don’t all crash down at once and ruin everything in a hurricane of thoughts and lists and projects because the third step requires two steps of its own and so on and so forth. If you know that helplessness you know. I was very surprised at how kind, sensitive and professional both my counselor and prescriber are. They me make me feel heard while simultaneously giving me counsel and monitoring my medication for my mental health. It’s a perfect balance. This company has changed my life. That’s not hyperbole. My ptsd therapist has recommended his other ADHD clients to cerebral and they are thriving as well. This was SUCH a needed service in a world where looking for supportive medication makes you a pariah. Only 4/5 stars because the app is glitchy as heck and even with deleting and uploading fresh was a no go and sometimes their customer service can be undertrained but that’s more than forgivable these days.

This app is life changing. Since 2018 I have struggled trying to find a therapist and psychiatrist that I could fit into my 9-5 work schedule. Needless to say my mental health was always put on the back burner. As someone who rarely asks for help I felt discouraged and frustrated when I would reach out to a psychiatrist only to get turned away due to limited appointment times, not accepting new patients, the price of a new patient visit, and not being able to get in soon enough for mandatory in person follow ups for refill prescriptions. The Cerebral app is user friendly and I was able to accomplish more in a 2 hour span (signing up, scheduling and having a virtual appointment with a licensed professional, and being prescribed medication) than I have been able to accomplish in the past yearS. This process has never felt easier and more comfortable than with Cerebral. I finally feel like I am actually being helped instead of being turned away or sent in circles. I look forward to continuing my journey with Cerebral knowing that my mental health has been made a priority. My care worker had a super calming demeanor and was extremely informative throughout the e-meeting. She listened to all my needs and answered all of my questions. She ensured me that I should not feel alone and that the app is always open if I every need help and can use the chat for open communication. Thank you Kateri for making this painless, I appreciate your help more than I could ever describe.

This service is great. I just began a treatment and my prescriber not only listened but made sure the treatment was adequate for me and my needs. Like a true Practitioner we began a plan that started slow, and worked towards improving my anxiety and depression in order to see if their underlying cause has to do with ADHD. I’ve done some research in regards to which one you treat first, and the best psychiatrists and studies suggest to do both at the same time, if a link is found between the two. In my case, there clearly is. She was so nice, so smart, I do recommend this app. This is the first review I’ve ever done, in any platform. This means a lot to me, I feel as if I will get my life back. I’m excited. To those who experienced really bad service, I do feel sorry, I wish that wasn’t the case, but it does depend on which state you are in as well. Perhaps people in your state are just more susceptible to acting in that way. Maybe, maybe not. Either way, the app is at least worth a try. I never had to have someone schedule me an appointment, I scheduled and rescheduled so many times. I always got an answer back, I always had someone answer my phone calls. Yeah you might have to wait, the most a few hours but they’re people too, they have a life as well. Some of you reviewing here are very rude.
