Pros & Cons
Pro: • You get to shop/date around for a therapist that you like and is aligned with your needs, opportunities for real connection • Different options for sessions (audio, messaging, etc) • Free through your employer, depending • Easy to use • Convenience and flexibility of scheduling without rigid session expectations Con: • Short 30min sessions causes you to rush • Therapists’ scheduling and timing isn’t always in alignment with your personal needs. Their availability can change at any moment. • Some therapists do not always intentionally take space for your sessions (doing multiple things including their daily life responsibilities, activities and tasks) —which could relate to how they are paid, reflecting the importance or priority they give to these sessions at large
