Pros

flexible schedule, work from home, decent number of referrals, really meaningful work and reaching clients that might not otherwise seek therapy

Cons

Pay is embarrassingly low. While they are increasing pricing in the future and compensation will also increase, there are no increases for therapists who have had long-term clients. Leadership does not answer questions but will direct you to search through disorganized materials to find the answer yourself. Therapists are expected to keep current on company policies which are ever changing.

Talkspace Response

We’re sorry to hear you were frustrated by the pay as a Talkspace therapist. Keep in mind that our pay-scale depends on how many clients you work with, and the plans to which they are subscribed, which does fluctuate, and we recognize that can be frustrating. Most of our therapists work with Talkspace to earn supplemental income on their own time. Also, our resources are available to all Talkspace therapists used as a tool for training and to support clinical practice and success on the platform. Thank you for taking the time to review Talkspace. Your voice helps us make the changes we need to make to maintain our vibrant and engaged community of therapists.
