Currently the service is available only to California digital
creators living in CA but they do have plans to expand the service
across the U.S.
Resources Mentioned:
If you are a digital creator that lives in California, you can
access the
Revive Health Therapy portal for
Creator Care. There are virtual visits as well as an option for
actual offices visits if you live near Oakland or Walnut
Creek.
The Anxiety and Depression Association of America website have
a
directory of providers that focus on these
topics. You can search by location, your condition or by your
population type, for example, you are a veteran, a senior or a
person with disabilities.
The Open Counseling website allows you to put in
your zip code or the name of your state and then find a provider.
Some of these providers do have a virtual therapy option.
On the main page of the website, there is information on some
of the non-profits that might have free or reduced payment options
to access therapy treatment. Please note that Open Counseling
has an affiliate relationship with the BetterHelp.com group of
companies, such as Regain.us, TeenCounseling.com and
TalkSpace.com.
Open Path Collective. This is a non-profit
membership site that can help you reduce the cost of your therapy
