Out-of-network" doesn't always mean unaffordable.

Most people don't realize their insurance plan may still cover a large portion of trauma therapy – even with a provider who isn't in their network. It's called out-of-network benefits, and navigating it is more doable than it sounds.

We broke it down: what a superbill is, how to verify your coverage, and a real cost example so you can actually run the numbers.

If cost has been the thing standing between you and treatment, this one's for you. You can find the full guide here: https://www.nemahealth.com/blog-posts/out-of-network-benefits-superbills-for-trauma-therapy

If you’re thinking about starting treatment for PTSD or trauma, you’ve probably come across CPT and EMDR.

Both are considered gold-standard treatments and are backed by strong research. More importantly, they don’t just help you cope – they help you actually process and heal from the trauma itself.

So how do you choose? The honest answer: there isn’t one “right” option for everyone. It’s okay to ask questions, try an approach, and figure out what feels like the best fit for you.

Because at the end of the day, the most effective treatment is the one you feel comfortable with – and the one you’ll stick with.

Read our blog post below to learn the key differences, benefits, and how to decide what might work best for you. 👇

🧠 A lot of people come to us wondering about the differences between PTSD, CPTSD, and dissociation: “Is there one? What does it mean for my treatment?”

What many people call complex PTSD often includes things like emotional numbness, intense shame or self-blame, difficulty trusting people, and, yes, dissociation. These experiences are real and deeply distressing. But they’re not fundamentally separate from PTSD.

In clinical practice, we usually understand them as part of the same trauma response system – sometimes with additional features like dissociation.

The bottom line: Your brain learned these responses to help you survive something overwhelming. The most important thing to know isn’t which label fits best. It’s this: these symptoms are treatable.

Evidence-based trauma therapies – including Cognitive Processing Therapy and EMDR – work for people with PTSD, with dissociation, and for people whose experiences feel more “complex.”

If the word CPTSD resonates with you, that doesn’t mean your situation is hopeless or untreatable. It means your nervous system adapted to survive. And with the right trauma-focused care, healing is possible.

Celebrating our CEO and co-founder Sofia Noori today and every day 💙 cheers to an empathetic, hard-working, and humble leader.

Today we’re highlighting Dr. Sofia Noori, MD, MPH, a trauma‑trained psychiatrist, survivor, and trailblazer shaping what person‑centered, culturally competent care can look like.

As the co‑founder and CEO of Nema Health (a PTSD and trauma treatment program), a faculty member at the Yale Department of Psychiatry, and a nationally recognized expert in women's mental health, Dr. Noori is helping lead a new era in psychiatric care, one that uses digital health to bring evidence‑based treatment to people who have historically faced barriers to support. Her work makes PTSD care more accessible, more responsive, and more attuned to the needs of those who have experienced gender‑based violence.

What makes Dr. Noori’s impact especially powerful is the integration of her lived experience as a survivor with her clinical expertise. She understands, deeply and personally, the importance of care that honors a person’s story, validates their pain, and supports recovery with compassion and precision.

Her leadership reflects the purpose of our work at Greater Mental Health of New York: expanding access to high‑quality, trauma‑informed mental health services so every woman can receive care that meets her needs with dignity and understanding.

Throughout , we’ll continue spotlighting the women who have transformed our knowledge, our systems, and our care for generations to come. Their work is shaping the future, and helping us build a world where women’s mental health is understood, respected, and prioritized.

Most people don’t realize that there’s a treatment for PTSD that actually works – and it’s called CPT.

We recently conducted a study on how patients with PTSD respond to CPT delivered virtually and intensively (more than 3x per week). Turns out: this way of delivering an already effective treatment works really well.

For patients who received intensive CPT in 3 or more sessions per week for an average of 39 days, our peer-reviewed research shows that 99% no longer met criteria for a probable PTSD diagnosis at the end of treatment. Most saw significant reductions in PTSD, depression, and anxiety by end of treatment, and they maintained those improvements at 90 days post-treatment.

We measure outcomes like these because you deserve to know if this treatment works. See our blog post to learn more about what we found – and what we’re still learning.

We'll translate what scientists have discovered about intensive PTSD treatment into language anyone can understand, backed by links to the actual studies so you can verify everything yourself. —Identifying PTSD is the first step to recovery.

Most people don’t realize that there’s a treatment for PTSD that actually works – and it’s called CPT.

We recently conducted a study on how patients with PTSD respond to CPT delivered virtually and intensively (more than 3x per week), and the results are pretty incredible.

Here’s Isobel Rosenthal, our co-founder and Chief Medical Officer, to explain why this is such a big deal for patients with trauma everywhere.

PSA: Trauma recovery shouldn’t take 33 years – but without the right treatment, sometimes it does.

Celebrities like are no exception. After experiencing sexual assault when she was 19, Gab spent 3 decades in the kind of therapy that couldn’t alleviate her PTSD. She recently opened up on podcast about how, since finding Nema, she “was able to find peace in my body – and I never want to let that go.”

Curious what our treatment looks like? Our PTSD-trained therapists deliver Cognitive Processing Therapy (the evidence-backed gold standard for trauma) multiple times per week for rapid recovery. Our patients get homework to enhance treatment, meet with peer mentors who provide support and guidance, and ultimately, 93% longer meet the criteria for PTSD after undergoing treatment with us.

PTSD treatment can feel hard, but it’s not harder than living with trauma for 33 years. And in the end, like Gab says, recovery feels like true peace. Proud to share that Gab responded to the Nema mission and philosophy so strongly that she's now joined us as an investor and advisor — we are honored to call her a

If you’re hearing Nema advisor & investor Gabrielle Union describe her recovery from PTSD and feeling seen – that feeling is worth following.

Nema Health provides intensive Cognitive Processing Therapy (the evidence-backed gold standard for trauma) multiple times per week for rapid recovery from PTSD. Data shows that more frequent treatment works faster and lasts longer. And within an average of 39 days of treatment, 93% of our patients longer meet the criteria for PTSD.

In the end, like Gab says, recovery feels like true peace. And it’s possible.

This community event will be hosted by Nema trauma & PTSD-trained therapists and is open to the public. Please feel free to share and/or register below.
