Great app!! and I highly recommend you get it if you are or a loved one who is struggling with mental illness. And The fact that it's very affordable definitely doesn't hurt either. So not only will your wallet thank you, but your brain and body will as well. [It got a bit corny at there, but Hopefully you will get the general gist of it lol.

Mari is patient and provides the space for me to open up about my experiences. She offers insights about the ways I've been thinking about past events. I can now look at some of my past choices and feelings with more understanding and consideration.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
