What is therapy coverage?
Therapy coverage is a short-term arrangement where a licensed therapist temporarily sees another therapist's clients while they are on leave, on vacation, or out for medical reasons. It protects continuity of care, prevents client abandonment, and lets therapists take time off with confidence.
Therapy Coverage is a nationwide matching platform for private practice clinicians. We match you with in-state colleagues by licensure, insurance panels, populations and approach.

Coverage for every kind of leave
Built by a licensed therapist who lived the coverage gap
For years, Ana Zedginidze, LPCC, covered clients for colleagues in her community and saw how often therapists rushed back from leave because no one could step in. Therapy Coverage is the solution she built.
Our story“Therapy Coverage was exactly what I needed when I took a much needed vacation. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my clients were in good hands.”
Common questions
How much does therapy coverage cost?
Finding coverage is a one-time $49, charged only after a covering therapist accepts your request. Joining as a covering therapist is free.
How far in advance should I request coverage?
At least four weeks ahead for planned leave. Last-minute requests are supported too.
Is a substitute therapist ethically required?
Requirements vary by license and state, but the APA, AAMFT, ACA and NASW codes all address planning for continuity of care during absences.
Do you store client information?
No. We facilitate introductions between clinicians and never collect or store client health information.
