in 2024 I wanna stop hearing about betterhelp
#elise's posts
#SO many youtubers etc I like are promoting this shit
#fyi for those who don't know it's a REALLY unethical business trying to take advantage of the mentally ill
#and before you say 'but how else am I meant to find a therapist that does online sessions'
#post-pandemic most therapists offer this
#and if you want the whole 'I can text my therapist for therapy anytime 24/7' thing...
#sorry I know it might sound useful but it's SUPER bad for both your own mental health and your therapist's
#sorry but therapists are not meant to be there for you 24/7
#that's not their job and it's really unhelpful for YOU to become dependant on a 24/7 therapist
#betterhelp do not vet their therapists thoroughly
#and some people say they have been evangelised to on betterhelp by preachers who ask the algorithm to assign them queer and atheist clients
#many reputable therapists state that it's a terrible business model promoting unhealthy practices to patients
#it claims to be the cheapest option but it's more expensive than the most expensive therapist I've ever had (I'm in the UK)
#and significantly more expensive than the cheapest who was still good and probably more qualified than some people on betterhelp
#you pay extra for the middleman
#(being allocated a therapist you didn't choose and vet yourself isn't great anyway imo surely you want agency in this huge decision?)
#and I'm sorry but pride counselling is a branch of the same company
#please just look for therapists that specialise in your needs through a regulatory model and get in touch with them directly
#not all of them have waitlists and tbh if every therapist on betterhelp is available whenever what does that say about them
