What Is Concierge Therapy? Flexible, Private Care for Busy Lives in San Luis Obispo
By Ben Rea, LCSW
Sometimes, fitting therapy into your schedule feels impossible. You may be juggling work, family, leadership responsibilities—or you simply value privacy and ease when it comes to your personal care.
That’s where concierge service comes in.
Concierge therapy is a high-access, discreet model of care designed to meet you where you are—literally and emotionally. For the people who hold everything together for others, this is therapy that holds space for you.
What “Concierge” Means in Therapy
In medical settings, “concierge” care typically refers to a personalized service model where a provider works with a smaller number of clients in order to offer more direct, responsive care.
In therapy, that looks like:
Curated client list, multiple sessions per week, more access
Sessions available in-home, at your office, or virtually
Direct therapist communication between sessions (text/email check-ins, if needed)
Flexible scheduling—even during early mornings, evenings, or midday gaps
This isn’t a therapy app or a 10-minute check-in. It’s real, meaningful psychotherapy tailored for people who want deep work with minimal friction.
Who Concierge Therapy Serves
This model is ideal for people who need support—but need it to fit into complex, high-responsibility lives.
I most often serve:
Professionals and entrepreneurs balancing leadership and family
Parents with packed schedules and no room to drive across town
Physicians, therapists, and mental health professionals seeking care outside their networks
Public-facing individuals who value discretion
College students with a complex academic calendar
Individuals seeking brief intensive trauma therapy with additional support
You may look calm and collected on the outside. But inside, you’re stretched thin. Concierge therapy offers space to breathe, reflect, and repair—without waiting lists or rigid office hours.
Privacy, Flexibility, and Support on Your Terms
As a concierge client, you can expect:
Maximum Privacy
Your time is your own. No waiting room. No chance of running into someone you know. If discretion matters, this model offers peace of mind.
Flexible Scheduling
We’ll collaborate on a time and location that fits into your day—not the other way around. I see clients in their homes, private offices, and via secure video.
Personalization
This isn’t therapy-by-numbers. Whether we’re addressing anxiety, relationship stress, burnout, or navigating change, sessions are customized to your real-time needs.
Between-Session Support
You’ll have direct access to me for brief check-ins, scheduling needs, or clarifying follow-ups—because support doesn’t always fit into a single 50-minute window.
