Therapy
Is there anyway to get one of the therapists on here without paying/giving my address? I live with my boyfriends parents and i dont really feel comfortable giving out there address on here
@confusedXcreature I don't think there is any way to do that. The therapists here are professionals who need to have details of anyone they accept as clients, and they need to be paid.

I am wondering what connecting with a therapist through 7cups is like. Is the experience helpful or similar to connecting with therapists on other apps/other places? Do they work with you on goals and provide advice/guidance? Do they set up 1-hour appointments? Is it message-based or do they use phone/video calls?

@coolcat361 I don't have any personal experience of therapy here. I believe it's entirely message based, with no phone or video.
I imagine they work with you on goals and can provide guidance based on their expertise.
However, none of the therapists I know in real life do message-based therapy because they don't think it's possible to achieve a close enough connection with someone using written messages alone. This would tend to make me think that message-based therapy is perhaps not appropriate for serious mental health problems, but it might be OK if you need support and coping strategies for life's difficulties.
