HOW DOES TALKSPACE WORK?
Tell us your preferences for therapy, whether it’s relationship advice, help with anxiety, or treatment for symptoms of depression, and you'll be matched with a professional therapist in your state the same day. Once matched, you can chat with your therapist via unlimited text, audio, picture, or video messages from anywhere, any time—you’ll hear back at least once a day, five days per week. Talkspace works with major insurance providers, and with over 100 million Americans covered, it is the top in-network therapy service.

IS TALKSPACE EFFECTIVE?
Online therapy through Talkspace has been shown to be as effective as face-to-face therapy. In one recent study, 81% of participants felt Talkspace is as effective or better than in-person therapy with a psychologist. In another, individuals who used Talkspace for only two months significantly improved symptoms of depression and anxiety, reducing their overall stress levels. With tools like unlimited chat messaging, licensed therapists provide tailored support and counseling to meet your needs. Talkspace has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, CNN.com, Business Insider, and more, highlighting its effectiveness in delivering professional mental health treatment and counseling through licensed psychologists. Whether you’re seeking support for stress, anxiety, or relationship issues, Talkspace offers flexible treatment and counseling options that fit your lifestyle. Plus, with insurance coverage, therapy can be more affordable than ever.
