What clients say
Mom-centered, judgment-free care on your terms.
“I was struggling so much and feeling extremely overwhelmed as a new mother when I discovered Momwell. I thought I was the only one struggling and that there was something wrong with me for not being able to handle it all. After listening to the podcast, I’m feeling so much more like myself again! Motherhood is still hard, but I feel like I can finally breathe and enjoy it. Thank you, Erica!”
“I’d just gotten done crying after yelling at my children for the 100th time that day, feeling like I was a terrible mother, when I found the Mom Rage course. It was so comforting to hear people talking about exactly what I was going through–with NO judgment. I left with the tools I needed to recognize when I’m getting overwhelmed and bring myself back down. Our lives have gotten so much easier–I’m so grateful to Momwell!”
FAQ
Online therapy in California, answered
Is online therapy for moms available in California?+
Momwell therapists are licensed to provide virtual therapy to moms across California, from Los Angeles and San Diego to the smallest towns. Sessions happen over secure video, so support fits around naps, feeds, and work instead of a commute to a waiting room.
Which cities in California does Momwell serve?+

If you live in California, a licensed Momwell therapist can see you.
Does insurance cover online therapy in California?+
In California we are in-network with Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross of California, Blue Shield of California, Carelon Behavioral Health, and more. If your plan is not in-network, you can still see us with private-pay rates. Details are on our pricing page, and our intake team confirms your coverage before your first session.
Is virtual therapy as effective as in-person therapy?+
Research consistently finds that virtual therapy produces outcomes comparable to in-person care for anxiety, depression, and the maternal mental health concerns we specialize in. For moms, it often works better in practice: no childcare to arrange, no drive, and you can meet from wherever you actually are.
What happens if I move to another state?+
Therapy licensing is state-based, so your therapist needs to be licensed where you live. Momwell serves fifteen US states and five Canadian provinces, so if you move somewhere we serve, we will help you keep your care going, whether that is with your current therapist or a warm handoff to a teammate licensed there.
