That's how you get better care.
Most group practices treat clinicians as capacity to fill. Burnout follows, therapists leave, and clients start over with someone new. We built BIPS the other way around, because your therapy depends on the condition your therapist is in.
We invest in our clinicians
Supervision by licensed clinical psychologists, funded training, real case consultation, and caseloads people can sustain.
They stay, and they go deeper
Therapists build real specialties instead of burning out in two years. Your therapist is still here in year five, when the work gets to the part that matters.
You get the benefit
A long-term relationship with someone who knows their material, isn't watching the clock, and can hold the whole picture of your life.
- Therapy should be reachable Ask about our steep sliding scale. We look at your income and what you're carrying right now.
- Your privacy is not negotiable We don't sell data or route your sessions through platforms built to monetize attention.
- We handle billing Our team runs benefits checks, claims and superbills, so you're not left on hold with your insurer.
A practice can't offer clients something it doesn't offer its own people.

Anti-racist. Affirming.
For everyone.
We stand firm in our commitment to anti-racist, anti-oppressive, gender- and sexuality-affirming therapy. We recognize the harmful impacts of systemic racism, homophobia, and oppression on individuals, families, and communities.
Our therapists are trained to explore the intersections of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, disability, and other social identities, creating a space where you don't have to explain your life before you can start using your session.
Queer & trans affirming
Every BIPS clinician is trained in LGBTQIA+ affirming care. Our Gender Care Program provides specialized support for trans and gender-diverse clients.
Neurodivergent affirming
We welcome and specialize in ADHD, autistic traits, and other forms of neurodivergence, without pathologizing difference.
Sex-positive
We support diverse relationship structures, sexual identities, and intimacy concerns in a shame-free, nonjudgmental environment.
Anti-racist practice
Ongoing education and self-reflection to confront implicit bias and challenge the narratives that keep inequality in place.
