Open Minds Psychological

What Open Minds Psychological does

Open Minds Psychological is a private mental health group practice founded in 2018 and led by Dr. Brianna Matey, Psy.D. The firm delivers evidence-based therapy (CBT, DBT, REBT, Person-Centered Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Motivational Interviewing) to individuals, couples, families, children, and adolescents across four primary service lines: Individual Therapy for Adults, Therapy for Children & Adolescents, Couples and Family Counseling, and Group Therapy. It also offers diagnostic and specialized evaluations — including ADHD and Autism assessments, an expedited 48-hour Urgent Psychological Evaluation, and Lethal Weapons Evaluation — and runs the GREW program for entrepreneurs and Clinical Supervision for Licensure. Customers are primarily individual consumers paying per session (self-pay at $100-200, insurance copays $20-50), with additional client flow sourced from contracted Employee Assistance Programs including Lyra, Spring Health, Health Advocate, and the Allied Trade Association of Philadelphia.

The practice operates from two physical Pennsylvania offices in Plymouth Meeting (Montgomery County) and Phoenixville (Valley Forge Road), with additional service areas in Blue Bell and Gladwyne. Through PsyPact certification it is licensed to deliver telehealth across 30+ U.S. states (including PA, NJ, NY-area states, and most of the Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Midwest, Mountain West, and Southwest). Distribution is direct via the firm's website and the clientsecure.me online booking portal, supplemented by directory listings on Mental Health Match, a 111-page educational wellness blog, and social channels on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

The revenue model combines fee-for-service therapy and evaluation sessions (insurance in-network with Aetna for select clinicians plus Lyra and Spring Health, and out-of-network with superbills), EAP contract volume, and a limited sliding-scale offering for hardship cases. The practice has 16 employees and is privately held with no disclosed external funding, parent company, or institutional investors. Notable differentiators include doctoral-level clinician credentials, the 48-hour evaluation turnaround, the multi-state PsyPact telehealth footprint, and the GREW niche program.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• BetterHelp: Largest online therapy platform in the U.S., matching individuals with licensed therapists for video, chat, and phone sessions. Highly comparable to Open Minds as it serves the same general therapy demand but at national scale, with subscription-based unlimited messaging as a differentiator.
• Talkspace: Public online therapy and psychiatry platform with B2C and B2B (EAP/employer) distribution. Comparable on therapy modality and PsyPact-style multi-state delivery, though differentiated by unlimited messaging model and integrated psychiatry offerings.
• Doctor On Demand (by Included Health): Large-scale virtual care platform offering therapy and psychiatry alongside urgent and primary care, distributed through employers and insurers. Comparable on multi-state telehealth therapy delivery and EAP/insurance contracting, though broader in scope.
• Lyra Health: Enterprise mental health benefit provider offering therapy, coaching, and medication management through employer contracts. Directly comparable as an EAP distribution partner and on therapy delivery model, but operates at much larger scale with technology-enabled matching.
• Spring Health: Employer-focused mental health benefits platform partnering with major insurers (Highmark, IBX, Cigna). Directly comparable as both an EAP referral partner and a competitor for in-network therapy delivery, with broader care pathways including coaching and medication management.

Direct peers

• Octave: Multi-state therapy practice operating both in-person clinics and virtual sessions across employer and direct-pay channels. Highly comparable business model — group practice with evidence-based therapy, mixed in-person/telehealth, and strong employer/EAP channel exposure.
• Two Chairs: Group therapy practice with multiple Bay Area clinics offering evidence-based therapy (CBT, DBT) with strong client-matching technology. Directly comparable as a multi-location, doctoral-level private practice brand targeting adults with anxiety, depression, and relationships.

Emerging players

• Cerebral: Subscription-based mental health platform offering therapy and medication management, with particular focus on anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Comparable in addressing adult anxiety/depression via telehealth, though Cerebral emphasizes medication-assisted treatment where Open Minds focuses on therapy.
• Alma: Therapist-focused platform that helps independent licensed clinicians accept insurance and grow private practices. Comparable because it competes for the same clinician supply as Open Minds while offering an alternative operating model (network vs. employed practice).
• Brightside Health: Telehealth mental health provider focused on anxiety and depression with combined therapy and medication services. Comparable in telehealth delivery model and adult anxiety/depression focus, with greater emphasis on technology-driven measurement-based care.
