How We Help

You Should Never Have to Navigate This Alone

From the first conversation, we make the path forward clear.

01

Get in touch with us.

Tell us what is going on. There is no wrong way to begin, and no question is too small to ask.

02

We confirm coverage and fit.

We verify your insurance, answer what it will cost, and help you understand which kind of care fits.

03

We connect you with a clinician.

We match you on specialty, approach, and language, then help you schedule that first session.

Our team responds to every inquiry within 48 hours.

Our Care

Find the Right Level of Care

Two ways to find what you need. Start with how much support you are looking for, or start with what you are facing. Either path leads to the same team.

Questions Families Ask First

Do you accept my insurance?

We accept NJ FamilyCare and New Jersey Medicaid, and we are actively expanding commercial coverage with major carriers. In-home services for children and adolescents are delivered through New Jersey's Children's System of Care via PerformCare. A sliding scale is available for families without coverage, and we confirm your eligibility during intake.

Full details on our Insurance & Payment page.

What areas do you serve?

Outpatient care and telehealth are available across New Jersey. Our in-home program serves eight counties: Bergen, Passaic, Hudson, Essex, Union, Somerset, Monmouth, and Camden.

Yes. We have Spanish-speaking clinicians available. Let us know your preference when you reach out and we will match you accordingly.

Testimonials

What Our Partners Are Saying

"When I refer a family, I know someone will actually call them back. Mercedes Health confirms within a day or two, every time, and they tell me what happened next instead of leaving me to wonder."
Laura Serene
Care Manager, Bergen's Promise
"What I appreciate most is that I'm not choosing between IIC and outpatient for a student. If their needs change, they stay with the same team instead of starting over somewhere new."
‍
Jonathan Savior
Counselor, Newark Public Schools
"I refer families who need Spanish-speaking clinicians more than anywhere else, and Mercedes Health has never made that an afterthought. It's built into how they work."
‍
Megan Rainier
Coordinator, Bergen Pediatrics

Not Sure Which Fits? That Is Normal.
