Adolescent and Adult Mental Health Therapist

What is Talkspace?

Talkspace is a leading virtual behavioral healthcare platform that connects mental health therapists and counselors with clients in their licensed state(s) through an easy-to-use and HIPAA-compliant app. Recently Talkspace was selected by the New York City Health Department to power free therapy access to over 400000+ teenagers in NYC schools - this initiative not only makes a profound impact on the lives of these teens but also reinforces the pivotal role therapists play in shaping the future of our youth.
