The app is terrible
The app is terrible. It’s clunky and glitchy. The therapists are all overworked and have too many clients so you’re not able to get a session per week with your therapist despite paying for it. They take your money days before your renewal date so if you wanted to cancel you’ll have to wait another month. The customer service is like bad AI- they’ll walk you through a list of “troubleshooting solutions” that have nothing to do with your issue and make you feel like you’re banging your head against a wall just trying to get the service you paid for. Depression and anxiety are far better to live with than this shit.

Hi Shay, We are so sorry for the poor experience across a few layers of our platform. Therapist availability can vary, but it looks like our team was able to help extend your membership to try and help accommodate. The technical issues were due to a global server outage that impacted hundreds of websites and supply chains; we know this was very concerning and upsetting. We will be reviewing the interactions you had with our Member Success team further and will be sure the appropriate managers are able to investigate your complaints further. We're sorry again for this negative experience. -BetterHelp Team
