Frequently asked questions
Imagine this: professional mental health support as accessible as your favorite streaming service. That’s online therapy for you. It’s fresh. It’s innovative. It brings licensed therapists right to your screen, in real-time. Live video sessions? Check. The flexibility of text or audio messages? Absolutely. Help is just a click away.
Then came the pandemic. The world turned upside down. Our mental health took a hit. Social distancing, limited outdoor activities, isolation – it was tough.
But here’s the silver lining. Online therapy, a relatively new concept, has shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions. Studies have shown that online cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has led to a 50% improvement in symptoms of panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. That’s a big deal.
Today, online therapy isn’t just an alternative. It’s the first choice for many. It’s accessible. It’s convenient. It’s often more budget-conscious than traditional therapy. Plus, it offers a variety of communication methods, giving you the freedom to choose what works best for you.
Therapy is an essential part of self-care, not a luxury. At Calmerry, we’re committed to making mental health support accessible. We offer a range of cost-effective subscription plans, ensuring you can access professional, high-quality mental health care without the hefty price tag often associated with traditional therapy.
Although it can be difficult to give a precise figure because of all the existing variables (state, location, therapist’s expertise, etc.), we would say that an average bill for a 60-minute in-person therapy session is around $300.
How does that compare with online therapy?
At Calmerry, we have a package with 1 video session and unlimited texting for $268 for the first month of therapy. So, you are getting a 1-hour session, and you can message your counselor at any time while also getting an unlimited access to our digital therapy kit, which includes valuable materials, courses, reflection tools, and more.
So, not only is online therapy more budget-friendly on average, but it also comes packed with extra tools and benefits. And the best thing is that the price is constant, regardless of where you are.
Yes, online therapy can be just as effective as traditional in-person therapy. Studies have shown that online therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), can significantly improve mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, and stress.
With the added convenience and accessibility of online therapy, you can receive the support you need wherever you are. We use proven, evidence-based methods to help you navigate your mental health journey.
First, you’ll complete a brief assessment to help us understand your needs. Then, you’ll choose a subscription plan that suits your budget and preferences. Once you’re all set, you’ll start therapy sessions, connecting with your counselors via text or video, depending on what suits you best.
For messaging therapy, you can expect to receive at least one daily reply during your counselor’s business hours. As for the video sessions, these will happen at a scheduled time through a video call.
The cost of therapy can vary widely depending on the type of therapy and the provider. At Calmerry, we strive to make therapy accessible to everyone. We offer a range of cost-effective subscription plans, with $200/mo for the first month of text therapy and $268/mo for the first month of therapy with video sessions.
That way, we can guarantee your access to professional, high-quality mental health care without the financial strain often associated with traditional therapy.
While Calmerry doesn’t work with insurance companies directly, you can always ask for a receipt that you can use for partial or full reimbursement from your insurance provider.
The duration of therapy can vary greatly depending on the individual and their specific needs. Some people may improve after a few sessions, while others may benefit from longer-term therapy. At Calmerry, we offer flexible subscription plans that allow you to choose the frequency of sessions. Our therapists are here to support you for as long as you need.
We live in a digital age, where everything from shopping to socializing has moved online. So why should mental health care be any different?
Imagine this: no geographical barriers. Professional mental health support is within your reach, whether in the remote countryside or a city that never sleeps. All you need is an internet connection. It’s therapy that comes to you, making it accessible for everyone, everywhere.
With online therapy, your therapist is closer to your laptop or smartphone. Connect from your home to work or vacation.
Traditional therapy often comes with a hefty price tag, but online therapy is changing that narrative by making mental health care more accessible and inclusive.
Not ready yet to have one-on-one sessions? Don’t worry. With online therapy, you can also choose messaging therapy.
Lastly, online therapy offers a level of anonymity that can be comforting. If the thought of sitting face-to-face with a therapist feels daunting, the distance provided by online therapy could be just what you need to open up and express yourself freely.

We also have a few social media accounts on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and LinkedIn, where we share tips, new articles, announcements, and insights into mental health and online therapy.
At Calmerry, we offer two main plans: one with a single monthly video session and another with four. However, the frequency of therapy sessions can be tailored to your needs. You can always purchase additional sessions if needed. If you need clarification on the quantity, your counselor will suggest the appropriate amount based on your needs and their assessment.
At Calmerry, we offer flexibility in the duration of your therapy sessions. Depending on your needs and comfort, you can choose between 30, 60, or 90-minute sessions.
No, Calmerry therapists do not prescribe medication. Only psychiatrists and certain other medical professionals can prescribe medication. However, if your Calmerry therapist assesses that medication might benefit you, they can recommend you consult a psychiatrist or primary care physician.
Calmerry works with many specialists specializing in treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, relationship and grief counseling, stress management, self-esteem improvement, and more. Calmerry is also a good choice, even if you don’t feel like you need help with something specific but just seeking to improve your quality of life through guidance with a trusted partner or just need a place to vent. We use your survey and our matching algorithms to find the best-fit specialist who can satisfy your needs and concerns.
However, Calmerry cannot help you if you:
- Are a minor
- Are currently experiencing suicidal ideations or self-harm
- Seek substance abuse therapy
- Require behavioral addictions therapy
- Need violence & abuse counseling
- Are looking for eating disorders therapy
- Are currently experiencing a crisis or life-threatening situation
If you believe your life is in danger, we strongly encourage you not to seek help through Calmerry or any other online therapy platform. Instead, call 988 to get immediate help.
As for other concerns, we hope that you find the help and relief you need and we’ll let everyone know if our range of services ever expands to accommodate such requests.
At Calmerry, you will only be matched with a vetted, licensed therapist from your state.
