Talkspace app?

Has anyone used this before? It popped up in my online search while looking for a new therapist. I like the idea, but I’m worried about how expensive it might be. Just wanted to see if anyone has used it and see their thoughts/feelings about it

Did you listen to the video? It says, "....for as little as $32.00 a week." Can you manage that? This option seems brilliant to me. Therapy without having to leave the house. There's a link that allows you to start chatting. As long as they don't demand your credit card information, why not check it out?

I didn’t see a video, it linked me straight to my App Store on my phone. I talked to someone and they showed me the plans and it was really expensive! $750 up front for 6 months, which in the long run isn’t that bad, but I don’t have that kind of money right now.

I’ve signed up for a free trial of something else that’s much more manageable & I’m still waiting to be linked with a therapist.

Wow that’s a lot. Surely they can’t expect most people who suffer from anxiety and depression to have that kind of money up front. Most of us are struggling to get our bills paid as it is.
