Hero Journey Club has beeen amazing. I had been with them for about 8 or so sessions now. I like my group and they are very welcoming. Cheyenne has been amazing and Emily who was my first therapist within the group. Its less itimidating then regular therapy and we all share similar interests and have fun playing games

I’ve been through a few sessions now, and I am very pleased from the beginning. At first I was worried I was just going through a typical therapy survey system and would still get stuck with a group that didn’t understand what I was dealing with; but I can say that the matchup system they have setup is perfect! My group and I all started at same time, and meet every other week. Our therapist, Damon, really has a balanced perspective of what we are going through, and finds ways to not only help us better understand ourselves, but also how to challenge ourselves to improve so that we can continue to move forward. My group is also amazing. We vibe so well together, and we feel like we can come a safe place to talk and understand each other, without fear of judgement. I for one, would give 10 stars if I could!

I've been here for almost a year, and it's been phenomenal. I was a little hesitant at first, due to some trauma with other therapy companies, but this has been so helpful. Rather than trying to tell you you're broken, they provide you with resources to handle what you're already dealing with and how to prevent further stressors. The groups are amazingly set up, and you have plenty of time and ways to cancel paying for a session if you need to skip one. My journey guide has been wonderfully kind and understanding, and has helped me through so much. My overall mood has increased and my anxiety has dropped. Very highly recommend.

The journey service was exceptional at helping my mental health for a price that was extremely affordable compared to structured therapy, even in a money-tight situation where all one has is a potato computer and maybe a few Discord games to play. It did take a while to process (my wait was about 2-3 months), and the system is a little new still, but for what this service is, it's well worth the rough edges. Speaking from my experience, my Guide has been nothing but a blessing in the storm, making an effort to be there for the Journeyers, who I also connect with on a deeper level. I learned much about myself here, and I will say as an AuDHD girl that this is great for those who are neurodivergent, or closeted of such, with a special interest in games or creative subjects. It's also very friendly towards LGBTQ+ people, especially in the TQ+ part, as many struggle with issues involving gender identity nowadays, and acceptance is key in this point in time. It's refreshing to see a space where this is casually accommodated for, and not made into a heated argument. Guides will use focused approaches proven to work in therapy for a wide arrange of things, and you'll be matched with one that works best for you from the get-go, and if you don't fit in a group, you can switch without much hassle. In my experience, though, most who join their first group stay, and we grow together. It feels welcoming and much more relaxed than being in an office or on a tense call, which has done wonders for my progress here. All in all, this is one of the hidden gems of the world, and I would recommend to anyone who needs affordable care.

The group I'm part of is super supportive and friendly, and I feel like it's great to grow with everyone simultaneously. My experience with HJC has been amazing!

I’ve been with HJC for more than a year now. It’s gone through /a lot/ of changes. While some may not be my favorite, they have always been people first.

This is just what I was looking for. I graduated individual therapy but I needed something I could routinely go to to just get through the dailies of life. This is exactly what I needed for an affordable price. It took about 2 weeks to get matched with a group and I’m glad they took their time bc I love the group I was matched with! I can’t recommend hero’s journey enough.
