One example that comes to mind is Better Help

During the pandemic, this company was heavily advertised across Twitch. Not surprised they pay shit wages. Wonder if they originally paid 2-3X market rate during the hype, but slowly clawed back the teaser rates in favor of the dog shit rates.

I heard all the bad shit about better help. But I had been interested in therapy so I tried to find a therapist from a local person instead. Found out my bill was nearly $200 a session. And since therapy isn't something like an annual doctor visit or a twice a year dentist visit, I noped out of that.

So I more than understand why people choose Better Help. It's often actually affordable.
