Trust before you commit.

We check practitioners’ credentials at the source so you can move forward knowing your interests come first. No rankings. No hidden incentives. Just clear facts.

What kind of work are you looking for?

Results are never ranked. Payment never changes what you see.

What we check

Eight things, checked and dated.

Exactly how we check each one →
  1. 1. IdentityIs this actually the person they say they are?
  2. 2. CertificationConfirmed with the body that issued it, never from a screenshot.
  3. 3. State licenseWhere one exists for the work.
  4. 4. Discipline recordsWith the date we searched.
  5. 5. Liability insuranceCarrier and expiry date.
  6. 6. Years in practiceMarked self-reported.
  7. 7. What they work withMarked self-reported.
  8. 8. FeesIncluding whether they offer a sliding scale.

What we don't do

  • We don't rank practitioners.
  • We don't recommend anyone or decide who suits you.
  • We don't take payment for placement or position.
  • We don't check outcomes or whether someone is right for you.

That part is yours.

Why this exists

A listing isn't the same as a check.

18%

of 120 secret-shopper calls to mental health providers listed in Medicare Advantage plan directories reached a possible appointment, in a 2023 U.S. Senate Finance Committee study.

Many certifying bodies do not verify their own members, and some directories state they must not be used to check credentials.

Almost no directory tells you what a practitioner paid to be listed, or what a session costs.

So we check, write down what we found, and date it.

A notebook on a wooden table that reads: Tell Gina what's happening. She'll help you figure out what to look for.

Not sure where to start?

Tell Gina what keeps happening. She'll name the pattern, point you to what to read, and show the kinds of work people explore for it.

Ask Gina →

Gina doesn't recommend a practitioner. If you want to look at people who do that kind of work, she shows every verified practitioner in that category, unranked.

We’ll tell you what we found. And what we couldn’t know.

We check credentials at the source, date what we find, and label anything that came from the practitioner themselves.

We verify:

  • License
  • Certification
  • Discipline search
  • Insurance
  • Fees
  • Date checked

We don’t decide:

  • Whether they’re good
  • Whether they’re right for you
  • Whether their work will help you

The facts are ours to check.
The choice is yours.

Practitioners: prove what you hold.

Prove your training, your insurance and your clean record, and keep it current, on a page you can link from your own site.

This is a verification record, not a lead service. We don't promise clients, and we never rank anyone.

Who pays?

Practitioners pay a flat fee to be verified and kept current. The fee is the same for everyone and does not affect whether they appear, where they appear, or what we publish.
