Disappointing Experience and No Refund Policy

I used Cerebral for just one day, and unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. My consultation with the provider lasted barely five minutes, during which I was told that the support I needed would require medication they could not prescribe. Despite this, Cerebral refused to offer a refund, even though I had only used the service for a single day and received no meaningful help. It felt like a waste of time and money. I would caution others to be aware of their rigid refund policy before signing up.

So happy I found Cerebral

I had tried other online mental health services in the past with mixed results, and decided to try cerebral after not finding the right match on the previous service I used. I've been so happy with the therapist I got matched with on cerebral. She's kind, really listens, and has been very helpful with helping me with my anxiety and ADD. There's no subscription fee, and you just pay per visit, which I really prefer as my schedule can vary.

I felt like the profiles for the therapists were very helpful in choosing someone, and also like the app design for keeping track of my progress.

Best decision.

I finally took the big step and got into therapy. It has been one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. I got connected with an excellent therapist on the first attempt! She is knowledgeable, professional and compassionate in her practice and perfectly suited for the situations that I need help with. Thank you Cerebral for this invaluable service.

Palei Alfaro has been an exceptional therapist since I began working with her last year. She consistently demonstrates genuine care and understanding during our sessions, creating a safe space where I feel heard and validated. Her knowledge and expertise are evident in how she guides me through difficult situations with practical strategies tailored to my specific needs.
What stands out most about Palei is her commitment to supporting me between sessions through thoughtful messages on the portal. These communications have been crucial during challenging times, providing encouragement exactly when needed. She balances compassionate listening with honest feedback that helps me recognize patterns and work toward meaningful growth.
Palei excels at positive reinforcement while still holding me accountable to my goals. She remembers details from previous sessions and follows up appropriately, which makes me feel valued as a client. Her approach is both professional and warm, creating an environment where therapeutic progress feels achievable.
I consider myself fortunate to have Palei as my therapist and would highly recommend her to others seeking support. She has been instrumental in my personal development journey.
