Seriously, I know it's tempting because most of us have no other options available, but please - be careful when you trust your mental health to one of these "drive through" therapists (if they even are that, I remember a story a little while ago about how the apps don't actually vet the therapists and their credentials, and I'm also certain that a bunch of them are now simply AI. As well as, of course, their being for profit and having access to your most personal and sensitive data and information), especially if you have an actual mental health illness and or are otherwise neurodiverse. Believe me when I tell you that in some cases no therapy is better than bad therapy (that doesn't mean you stop looking for the right kind of help, but settling for the wrong kind can do a lot of damage both short and long term).
