They really work with you to make sessions affordable, and I love how easy it is to reach someone. Took off one star because my therapist has to call me back at least once every session - the phone system suddenly mutes her side and I cannot hear her until she hangs up and calls back. it's happened every call

the platform itself is very user-friendly finding a therapist is also very user-friendly and I enjoyed the time that I have spent on the platform for my own personal growth. I recommend vetting your therapist as always in any counseling session better help very easy to utilize finding a counselor that fits your needs the negative side is the platform is very affordable but yet confusing to understand there is a sliding fee scale for people with no insurance most sessions are $65 very affordable

Functional app, terrible service. Matched with an individual contrary to preferences. When given the option to change, none fit (the few alternatives provided). I was under the impression more than 20 therapists worked with this. Already skeptical with this profession. Assumptions have now been confirmed. This is a cash grab.
