Run away!
If I could give this company zero stars I would. I needed help for depression and grief. I checked out all of the online sites and decided to try cerebral because I liked that I could talk to a therapist weekly and a provider monthly, and explore meds that might help me feel better as well as being able to message any time I wanted. They got my money, I got one visit with the nurse (who was really nice and understanding). Together we decided to try some meds to deal with my insomnia and see if actually sleeping might help with my anxiety and depression. Then I had an appointment with a therapist. I sat in front of my computer and watched the icon stating that the therapist was offline for 20 minutes before giving up. 2 hours after my appointment my app said I was a no show. I contacted them and they said she was there but the app said I wasn’t. They apologized about the “technical difficulties” and tried to schedule another session but all they had available was a week away and I’d be on vacation. So, when I return 10 days later my meds showed they had been delivered but we couldn’t find them (our dog found them somewhere on our acreage and brought them to the porch the next day). I tried the meds which had the opposite effect on me, keeping me awake and making me feel really bad. I contact them about a therapy session and the bad meds. The soonest session they could come up with for me was a few days out and late in the evening around the time I start my bedtime routine. Now I’m getting seriously annoyed and I decide to cancel before they charge me again. After I put in my cancellation request they offer me 50-75% off, lol. I told them that I would consider staying if they would give me the next month for what I had already paid since I didn’t get anything but bad meds from them. She said she’d speak to her manager. Nope, they came back with 50% off. HORRIBLE COMPANY. They obviously don’t back up what they’re doing and only want more money. How can you not honor the person that pays for your service? I got ahold of Teledoc and got a visit the same day with an awesome licensed psychiatrist. I canceled my card attached to the cerebral account after reading about people being charged after they quit to hopefully avoid that. All I can say is save yourself some grief at a time when you need it the least and seek help elsewhere.

Hi Connie, Thank you for taking some time to write to us about your feedback and experience. I want to take a moment to apologize that you received less-than-satisfactory care. It sounds like technical difficulties may have played a role here; nevertheless, I can understand why this would have been a disappointing experience. I would like to see how I can work to repair your trust in Cerebral and help in this situation. Please feel free to reach out to me at (415)403-2156 or [email protected] and ask for me. I look forward to speaking with you soon. Kindly, Molly V. Cerebral Coordinator
