Why I Write for Choosing Therapy
I write for Choosing Therapy because it allows me to combine my passion for writing with my commitment to expanding access to quality mental health care. Choosing Therapy’s editorial independence and high standards make it possible for me to provide honest, well-informed, and unbiased reviews of mental health tools, services, and platforms.
After working in the mental health field for almost a decade, I’ve seen firsthand where virtual care can fall short. Writing for Choosing Therapy gives me the opportunity to highlight those gaps and recommend companies that are truly focused on delivering effective, compassionate support.
