The Active Listeners are either psychology related grade students and had clinic related experiences previously. They are also taking weekly training and get supervised by licensed therapists for quality services.
DO I HAVE TO SIGN UP TO SCHEDULE A COUNSELING SESSION?
You don’t have to sign up to schedule for counseling session with either active listener or licensed therapist. But signing up will help you look up and manage your schedule and leave a message to the provider.

After you sign up for a session, you will receive an email from your provider for confirmation. The provider will inform you the link for joining the session at the scheduled time.
WHO WILL BE HELPING ME?
You can search for counselors or active listeners who fits for your preferences based on the way you put it (by gender, language, price, and so on). Each counselor/active listener may have different approach and areas of focus. You can always feel free to change your counselor/active listener and find the one better suits you.
