More and more people are choosing concierge psychology over traditional services
As wait times to access healthcare increases, more people are seeking care through concierge providers. Concierge psychology is a highly individualized and exclusive approach to therapy. This type of approach to counseling is customized to clients’ specific needs and schedules. We also specialize in teletherapy as our method of contact, which allows us to help individuals across the country from the privacy of a personal space that is comfortable to them.
What makes concierge behavioral healthcare different?
We realized that many people desire a therapy style that emphasizes discretion and focuses on custom-designed goals and identifiable results. Concierge clients can contact us before, during, or after business hours to include weekends and holidays, and typically get a response within three hours. This bespoke approach to therapy tends to yield results because the client can access care when it is most effective for them, and because of the limited clientele, the providers can engage in highly individualized treatment. Our goal is to help you meet your goals. And when you want high quality results, concierge therapy is the best. Read more about the history of concierge models of healthcare here.
Do you accept insurance?
We get this question a lot. Concierge medicine is a newer model designed to allow individuals to access care more easily, without wait times and with a greater degree of time spent with clients and customized care. So, the answer to this is both yes and no.
Some of our providers do accept limited number of insurance clients into their caseload. Additionally, you can also use your regular insurance and let us give you what is called a “superbill.” This is a type of billing document that contains all the language the insurance companies need to reimburse the client directly.

Our story
Every great journey begins with a story. Ours is no different. In 2020, we saw an enormous increase in the need for mental health care and with the pandemic, teletherapy saw an increase in usage and popularity.
Following retirement from our military careers, we decided to design a private practice that offered a unique type of service called concierge therapy, which is rare in the field of psychology. Our clients are generally seeking bespoke, individualized therapy and coaching services with a focus on results, privacy and discretion. What started as a humble beginning has since grown into a thriving enterprise, thanks to the hard work, dedication, and unwavering support of our team and community.
Our approach
Our vision is to stand as the foremost provider of concierge psychology services, consistently delivering exceptional tailored VIP-level care. Whether you’re starting a new challenge or tackling a problem that has been stopping you from reaching your desired focus, our commitment is to collaborate and propel you towards your goals.

Is the Discovery Call really free?
Of course it is! A good fit with our clients is really important. So if we are not the right fit for you, or if we cannot meet your needs – we want to communicate that up front. Therefore, during the Discovery Call, we will ask what sort of goals you might have and answer any questions you have for us. We limit it to 15 minutes, and we don’t do therapy or coaching during that period. It’s all about seeing if you think we fit as potential partners to work on your goals with you. And it is free. Thus, no obligation, no sales pitch, no pressure – just fit! Contact us today.
Do you accept insurance?
Generally, our practice focuses on concierge therapy and coaching, but Dr. Traenkner does accept some insurance-based clients. Please reach out and we can see if we can help you! Check out our rates here.
What if I pick coaching or therapy and end up wanting to do the other activity eventually?
That is actually not unusual at all. Sometimes when we work with a therapy client, once we reach the goals set for therapy, it is not uncommon for them to then do coaching for a specific issue. Additionally, it’s important to keep in mind that coaching and therapy are different activities with very different processes and rules. They are definitely not interchangeable, but often a person does both at certain points in life. Give us a call and we will be happy to see what might work best for you. Read more about coaching versus therapy here.
Can you write a letter for an Emotional Support Animal?
The short answer is yes. However, as ethical psychologists, we must ensure that we have done our due diligence to ensure that the client has a disability that requires this type of support. Thus, we discuss the details of this fully with our clients so that they can make an informed decision whether an ESA letter is the right choice for them. Also, there are some great details on ESA letters at this website. Check it out! As always, contact us with questions and we will be happy to discuss your options.
