What I’m doing here is reviewing my experience of using each psychological health service, instead of its effectiveness – because even the most wizard-like therapist isn’t going to ‘treat’ you in just one week. I’m just comparing each service to the experience of sitting in a space and blarting on about yourself to a therapist. If you’re with me, nod. Okay, cool – let’s psychological health!

How does it work?
As seen on FB (by me, anyway), United States company is the corporate leviathan of the e-counselling game. They claim to have 500 certified counsellors working for them, each with a minimum of 3 years of experience.
After completing a questionnaire to ascertain what particular flavour of mental you are, you’re coupled with a counsellor, who you can mercilessly switch for a various one at any time. (I got Dr. Laura Dabney, from Virginia). You then kick off an instantaneous messaged therapy session that both you and your counsellor can drop in and out of, and which could, in theory, go on and on until among you eventually passed away.
What does it cost?
You get a totally free seven-day trial – just like a free Netflix or Amazon Prime trial, except with method more questions about what your youth resembled. After that, it costs from , 24.50 a week for unlimited message-based counselling and one ‘complimentary’ phone session with your counsellor per month. Yeah, I do not get how it’s complimentary either, however whatever.
