Quick Verdict

Calibrate offers a genuinely differentiated coaching-intensive program, but the separate program fee ($199/mo) on top of medication costs makes it one of the more expensive options in the market. It is worth considering if the coaching layer is important to you; otherwise, medication-only providers offer better value.
