I was skeptical because I had used a different company a few years ago and loved them, but that company became too expensive. Brightside was in my price range and allowed me to select my therapist, which is absolutely necessary for me. I don't trust just anybody to talk to about my problems. My therapist is awesome, and fits me like a glove. Brightside makes getting therapy easy, and the app keeps it all neatly organized with check-ins and updates to my mental health. I'm very pleased with them.

I'd recommend just opening their website instead of using the app. It regularly doesn't work. The lessions fail to load and the video calls usually struggle with glitches. The app also drains your battery super quickly. It would also be great if they could get their billing worked out so you don't get 2 months worth of charges all sent on one day almost 3 months after the earliest appointment.

for a while the app functioned phenomenally. I was getting better, healing, and so on. now to continue my care, the app is locking me out of scheduling appointments until I update my address, which I have done, several times. and one appointment was fully cancelled on the day it was scheduled, even though I confirmed and was ready to attend the appointment. I won't be surprised if I'm billed for that. I'm slowly losing faith in the app.
