What Arcadian Therapeutic Services does

Arcadian Therapeutic Services is a private, founder-owned outpatient mental health therapy practice headquartered at 570 Bakers Bridge Avenue in Franklin, Tennessee, serving clients across the greater Nashville and middle Tennessee region. Founded by Amy Frew (Ph.D., MSN, PMHNP-BC, APRN, LMFT) and Jonathan Boye (MS, MBA, LPC-MHSP), the practice operates with a team of 13+ therapists and offers evidence-based therapeutic services for children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Core offerings include Family, Adolescent, and Child Counseling utilizing Play Therapy, Art Therapy, EMDR, CBT, DBT, and TF-CBT modalities; Couples and Marriage Counseling; psychiatric medication management via a board-certified PMHNP; and gold-standard diagnostic assessments for autism (ADOS-2) and ADHD (Conners 4, CEFI, CAARS 2). Group therapy programs cover Women's Group, Men's Group, a bi-weekly general therapy group, and a specialized Social Skills Group for young adults with high-functioning autism. The practice also operates a practicum/internship program and clinical supervision offering for licensure candidates, functioning as a recruiting and training pipeline.

The business model is fee-for-service professional services on a pure cash-pay basis: Arcadian is out-of-network with all insurance providers, generates superbills for client reimbursement, and complies with the No Surprises Act via Good Faith Estimates. Per-session pricing tiers range from $55 (masters-level clinical interns under supervision) to $135 (masters-level licensed clinicians) to $175-$250 (fully licensed clinicians such as LPC-MHSP and LMFT). Discrete services carry fixed pricing: $1,500 for ADOS-2 autism evaluations, $1,000 for ADHD assessments, $350 for initial psychiatric evaluations, and $150 for psychiatric follow-ups. Court-related engagements require a $3,000 retainer plus $350/hour with a 4-hour minimum. Distribution is direct: in-person at the Franklin office, telehealth for existing clients, and intake via a free 15-minute phone consultation with online booking through an as.me scheduling platform. The go-to-market motion is community-led and referral-based, supported by an active blog (2021-2026), Instagram presence, and an email newsletter. The practice is privately held with no institutional investors, parent company, or external funding disclosed.

Broad incumbents

• Cerebral: Telehealth-first mental health provider combining therapy and medication management. Comparable integrated therapy-plus-psychiatry model, but with national online scale and lower price point that pressures local practices like Arcadian.
• BetterHelp: Largest online therapy platform with broad marketing reach and subscription pricing. Targets the same general mental health needs as Arcadian but via a low-friction, fully virtual model that competes for in-person clients.
• LifeStance Health: Large publicly-traded outpatient mental health platform operating hundreds of clinics nationwide. Comparable in core offerings (therapy, psychiatry, pediatric mental health) but operates at vastly greater scale and accepts insurance, positioning it as a broader incumbent alternative.
• Center for Autism and Related Disorders: Large national provider of autism diagnostic and behavioral intervention services. Comparable in autism assessment capabilities (including ADOS-2) but operates at significantly greater scale across multiple states.
• Talkspace: National online therapy and psychiatry platform serving individuals and families. Comparable target market (children, teens, adults, families) with significantly broader geographic reach and insurance acceptance, representing competitive pressure on Arcadian's therapy line.

Emerging players

• Brightside Health: Online mental health platform focused on anxiety and depression with combined therapy and medication management. Adjacent competitor targeting a subset of Arcadian's adult and adolescent client base via telehealth.
• Acorn Health: Multi-state provider of autism and ABA services. Comparable in pediatric autism diagnostics and therapeutic intervention but more ABA-focused, making it an adjacent rather than direct competitor.

Direct peers

• Ellie Mental Health: Franchise-based outpatient mental health practice offering counseling, psychiatry, and assessments across multiple U.S. markets. Directly comparable to Arcadian in service mix (therapy, medication management, group therapy) with a similar community-led, multi-clinician model.
• Octave: Multi-state mental health practice combining therapy and in-house psychiatry with group programming. Closely aligned with Arcadian's integrated therapy-plus-medication-management model and outpatient delivery format.

Others

• Child Mind Institute: Nonprofit children's mental health organization offering evaluations, therapy, and family support. Comparable in pediatric mental health mission and family-oriented service model, though nonprofit status makes it an adjacent rather than direct competitor.
