Refer a patient to the CEREVITY network.
A clear handoff for trusted referrers sending a high-achieving professional to private-pay, telehealth psychotherapy across all 50 states. Patient drives intake. CEREVITY coordinates care with the referring professional once the patient is engaged. No black holes.

The patient takes the next step. We coordinate from there.
Effective psychotherapy starts with the patient's own engagement. The referrals we see convert and persist are the ones the patient initiates themselves, after a trusted referrer has surfaced the option. Referrals where a third party submits intake on the patient's behalf consistently fail to engage. We have built the workflow around what actually works.
The handoff is simple: the referring professional surfaces CEREVITY to the patient and points them to cerevity.com/get-started. The patient submits intake themselves. CEREVITY's clinical leadership reviews and matches within the existing intake workflow. The patient is in their first session within 48 business hours of intake.
Once the patient is engaged in care, CEREVITY coordinates with the referring professional within the scope a signed release of information defines. This page exists to give referring professionals a clear picture of what to expect from the network, before, during, and after the handoff.
Referrals come from a defined set of professional and personal channels.
The page is structured around the most common referral sources. If you do not see your role represented here and you are referring in a professional capacity, the workflow is the same: surface CEREVITY to the patient, point them to Get Started.
Therapists, psychiatrists, psychologists, primary care physicians, internists, and Aviation Medical Examiners referring patients for psychotherapy when the engagement is outside the referring clinician's scope, modality, capacity, or geography.
Physician Health Program coordinators, HIMS program advocates, departmental peer support coordinators, and union or association peer programs surfacing CEREVITY to a clinician, pilot, first responder, or member.
Attorneys, outside counsel, board advisors, executive coaches, and chiefs of staff recommending mental health support to a senior client during transition, crisis, or sustained stress.
EAP case managers, benefits leaders, and HR partners escalating a leadership-tier client whose presenting issue or confidentiality requirement sits outside the EAP coverage map.
Family offices, private bankers, wealth advisors, concierge medicine practices, and lifestyle managers connecting an ultra-high-net-worth client to discreet psychotherapy.
Spouses, family members, and close friends recognizing the need and surfacing CEREVITY to someone in their life. The patient still has to take the step. Coaching the handoff is what helps.
Who CEREVITY treats.
CEREVITY's clinical scope is built around the presenting profile of high-achieving professionals across nine professional contexts. Refer patients whose role and presenting issue sit within this scope, in any of the modalities the network supports.
C-level executives navigating board pressure, organizational complexity, and the isolation of senior decision-making.
Startup and scale-up founders carrying the weight of every decision. Founder identity, exit transitions, post-exit depression.
Physician burnout, licensing concerns, compassion fatigue, and the specific stressors of clinical careers.
Attorneys and partners managing caseload stress, professional reputation, and partner-track or chair-election pressure.
CTOs, VPs, and engineering leaders balancing innovation, team demands, and the founder-to-operator transition.
Fund managers and partners navigating high-stakes portfolio pressure, fundraising cycles, and LP relationships.
Police, fire, and EMS professionals processing trauma, operational stress, and cumulative exposure.
Pilots navigating voluntary and mandated mental health support with discretion appropriate to FAA-related considerations.
Ultra-high-net-worth clients seeking private, confidential therapeutic support outside any conventional benefits or insurance structure.
A clear handoff, in five steps.
No third-party intake form. No black box on the back end. Here is exactly what happens from the moment you surface CEREVITY to your patient through to coordination of ongoing care.
Mention CEREVITY in the context of the patient's presenting concern. Frame it accurately: a private-pay, telehealth network of independent licensed clinicians for high-achieving professionals across all 50 states. Point them to cerevity.com/get-started.
The patient completes the standard Get Started intake on their own. This is by design. Patient-initiated intake is the strongest predictor of engagement and persistence in care, and it is the threshold our intake workflow is built around.
CEREVITY's clinical leadership reviews the intake against the active network: licensure scope, specialty, modality, professional context, and current capacity. The patient is matched to a specific clinician and contacted directly with intake instructions and a scheduling link.
Most patients are in their first session within two business days of intake. The patient owns scheduling. The matched clinician owns the clinical work.
Once the patient is engaged in care, the matched clinician coordinates with the referring professional within the scope a signed release of information defines. To open coordination, contact [email protected]. Sending mental health practices is the most common complaint referring physicians have. We do not operate that way.
What we share back, and on what basis.
Referring clinicians and physicians need a clear picture of what comes back through the channel after a patient engages. The default posture is that no clinical information leaves the network without a signed release of information from the patient. Specifics below.
CEREVITY operates as a HIPAA-covered entity. Clinicians in the network are independently licensed professionals operating under their own licensure and HIPAA obligations. The referrals desk is staffed inside the clinical infrastructure.
CEREVITY cannot confirm whether a specific named patient submitted intake, scheduled, attended, or engaged. Referring professionals operate on the assumption that the handoff was made and the patient owns the next step.
The matched clinician coordinates with the referring professional within the scope the ROI defines. Coordination can include engagement confirmation, treatment summary, progress at defined intervals, and discharge summary, scoped to what the ROI authorizes.
For pilots in HIMS or FAA-related programs, physicians in PHP-monitored programs, first responders in peer support pathways, and other contexts requiring structured coordination, CEREVITY accommodates reporting cadences and documentation standards specific to the program, with patient consent.
If you are concerned about a patient in immediate danger, do not rely on this channel. Direct the patient to 988 (Suicide and Crisis Lifeline), call 911, or refer to the nearest emergency department. CEREVITY does not provide crisis services and is not staffed for real-time emergency response.
Questions referring professionals ask first.
Because patient-initiated intake is the strongest predictor of engagement. Referrals where a third party fills out the form on the patient's behalf consistently fail to convert into ongoing care. The workflow is built to honor what actually works clinically, not to optimize for referrer convenience.
Coordination context is welcome once the patient is engaged in care and a signed ROI is on file. Pre-engagement context cannot be matched to a specific patient inside our intake workflow without violating the patient-driven structure that makes the workflow effective. If a heads-up is appropriate, mention it to the patient when you make the handoff.
Only with a signed ROI on file. Without one, CEREVITY cannot confirm whether a specific patient submitted intake, scheduled, attended, or engaged. The handoff is made; the patient owns the next step.
Yes, in defined contexts. CEREVITY supports pilots in HIMS or other FAA-related mental health programs, physicians in PHP-monitored programs, and similar structured pathways. Coordination cadence and documentation standards are accommodated with patient consent and a signed ROI.
CEREVITY is private-pay and out-of-network. Pricing is published at cerevity.com/our-pricing-for-therapy. Superbills are available where the patient requests one for out-of-network reimbursement.
Most patients are in their first session within 48 business hours of submitting intake.
After intake, if the network cannot serve the patient clinically, the patient is told directly and, where possible, pointed toward where the engagement might fit better. We do not accept patients we cannot serve.
No. CEREVITY does not pay for referrals, accept payment for referrals, or operate any form of referral fee or kickback arrangement. The channel is professional, not commercial.
All 50 states, via telehealth, through the network's combined licensure footprint, including PSYPACT-credentialed psychologists for cross-state psychology practice and state-licensed clinicians across the full national footprint.
Email [email protected] with the patient's name and your role. The matched clinician will follow up to coordinate the ROI and the scope of coordination.
Send your patient to Get Started.
The patient submits intake. The network handles the rest. Most patients are in their first session within 48 business hours.
Get Started → cerevity.com/get-startedThis page exists to give referring professionals a clear picture of how CEREVITY accepts referrals and coordinates care. It is not a third-party intake form or a sales-qualified-lead pipeline. The patient-driven intake structure is intentional and reflects what actually produces engagement and persistence in psychotherapy. The coordination workflow with a signed release of information is built to address the most common complaint referring physicians have about mental health referrals: that the referring professional never hears anything back. CEREVITY is structured to not be that black hole.
