Finding in-network therapists with openings in 30 days

Patients with insurance coverage struggle to locate therapists accepting their plan who have availability within a month, forcing them to choose out-of-network providers at higher costs or abandon care-seeking. Current therapy directories like Psychology Today and ZocDoc are outdated, don't filter by insurance in real-time, and don't show actual appointment availability.
