The best step I could of taken
I felt heard and validated on my first session. Have booked again and looking forward to it
Great!
Easy to use. Clear and upfront. No surprises. Connected to a fabulous therapist.
Amazing platform for therapists!
My experience since joining Talked has been wonderful. All of the traditional client onboarding processes are taken care of. Individual client profiles has made communicating and rebooking hassle free, plus automatic reminders are sent out before sessions (yay!)
This has helped to make things easier.
Throughout the hardships of life and to share it with someone who is listening and being there is helpful.
Fantastic service!
This service is brilliant for accessing therapy at a time that suits you, through a variety of options (video or voice call or messaging). It’s easy to book & the therapist I now use is fantastic.
In control
Love that I can see the reviews and profile of the therapist. I can filter to match my budget but still get a quality service. My first session went really well and I've booked again.
I'm really excited about future therapy sessions
I'm really excited about future therapy sessions with Tamara. She made it so easy to begin this journey. Thank you for being so kind.
Super convenient and hassle free service!
This platform was extremely convenient and straightforward to use. There were a variety of therapists to choose from to suit my needs and the whole process was easy and hassle free.
Excellent service
Booking and payments process was super quick and smooth and I liked that the therapy video session was directly on the platform and they don't force you to download any additional apps. I'll definitely be coming back and would also recommend Talked to everyone else! Great service!
Thank you for this site!
Being able to find a right therapist with this website has been really helpful.
Great platform, makes connecting with the right...
This platform was so easy to use, to search for the therapist, I thought would best suit my needs. I found someone I connect really well...
Very easy and convenient
Talked is very easy to use and really convenient to be able to book therapy sessions when they suit. There are so many therapists to choose from and the profiles make it easy to find the right one. It’s great to be able to send the therapists a message...
A great platform for counsellors and clients
As a Registered Counsellor, I have been finding the Talked platform easy to use. The admin staff are very helpful and quick to respond to questions or problems. It is set up well, with everything in one place: therapist selection, appointment booking, messaging, payments etc. I highly recommend Talked for both counsellors and clients.
Fantastic staff, easy to use platform and easy to book
It's cheaper and better experience then face to face therapy. The staff are well trained, kind and offer a range of different support techniques. Really awesome platform.
