About Cerebral
Cerebral is a US telehealth company offering online therapy and medication management by video, phone and messaging, mainly for anxiety, depression and insomnia. It stopped prescribing controlled substances on 15 October 2022 and agreed not to prescribe them in future under a November 2024 non-prosecution agreement with federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, who said it had encouraged ADHD stimulant prescribing in 2021–2022; it forfeited about $3.65 million. In 2024 the FTC also reached an order with Cerebral after alleging it sent health information on nearly 3.2 million people to LinkedIn, Snapchat, TikTok and others through tracking tools and made cancelling hard; the order bans most use of health data for advertising and required about $7 million in refunds and penalties. Plans are monthly; Cerebral says insured patients pay an average $30 copay per session, and self-pay prices are shown on its plans page. No published study of Cerebral's own patients was found.
