Talkspace

For the ✨2nd✨ year in a row Talkspace has been named Verywell Mind's Most Comprehensive Online Therapy provider of 2024, out of 82 companies and directories. “We quickly found ourselves building a rapport with our therapist, proving that we didn’t need to sacrifice quality care for comprehensiveness. We were able to book sessions after hours, which was great for ensuring our therapy appointments didn’t have to coincide with our workday. Plus, our therapist sent us thoughtful messages outside of our sessions that felt very meaningful. In fact, we were so pleased with our experience that we decided to stick with our provider even after our testing period ended.” - Verywell Mind Tester Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gC4C9Um

Eligible members will be paired with a licensed therapist for ongoing therapy through live video sessions that take place on Talkspace’s secure and encrypted platform, allowing users to get care from the comfort and convenience of home.

Parents and guardians of teens, this one's for you. To strengthen connection and defuse tension with your teens, we want to better equip you with day-to-day communication strategies straight from our therapists. Our licensed therapists work with teens 13+ across the country through asynchronous messaging, and have advice for supporting and validating them through texts and emojis. For example, here are a few of their suggestions for addressing potentially tense situations: Common Concern #1: Your teen is withdrawn or had a bad day and retreats to their room. I am here if you need me 🫶 Hope today wasn’t too bad 😔 Common Concern #2: They have homework or a chore to do, and it’s getting late. In this instance, sending a text might be a good first step. Homework done? Send me a ✔ to let me know your homework is done. Anything I can do to support you getting everything done?
