Therapeer Reviews

I didn’t find Therapeer useful. At first I liked it but now I don’t. I will be deleting my account. I would recommend those who try it use therapist primarily. And use Therapeer as a secondary option. I felt like some of the moss bent the rules. I never understood the rules fully and people were mean and judgmental to me some of them. Please be careful. I met some nice people. You guys need to be more on community and rules. I feel like I am breaking rules and that’s not fair. I joined a room and peer was a male. He kept asking me how he could get hooked up with a cute girl. He tried to get my contact info because he wanted to do business with me. I told him I couldn’t help him I knew nothing about business. The moderator in the room didn’t say anything. The whole thing was just weird I felt like a piece of meat. Several other people hit on me. I was just being nice and supportive. One room I joined nobody helped the host I was the only one. This triggered a major ptsd episode and brought back memories I don’t want to think about. There needs to be a moderator in every room. I almost had a bad relapse. Please be careful if you join Therapeer. Make sure you have a therapist. I did meet some kind people.

the first thing i noticed that i disliked is that to open a room you must JOIN a room for credit. many people likely downloaded that app for support and that’s being withheld? there should at least be one free room at the start.

second- i can’t join any rooms! EVERY. SINGLE. ROOM. including the ones recommended to me, says i can’t join because i don’t fit the criteria. even if it’s someone i have a lot in common with. and why are they being recommended if “we have nothing in common”? that makes no sense.

this is a great concept, but the execution of Therapeer is a shame. seems very poorly-run.

Awesome app! Love the idea, sense of community, etc.,

Wait, you rate individuals based on their impressions in the groups/chats? Based on how much they give information of themselves? I don’t feel it’s fair to rate people when they’re in their most sensitive state to share their own information or story.

Sometimes those going through the most difficult periods of their live’s can be the most encouraging, yet not ready to share, but are brave enough to make an appearance. And that gets a rating? I don’t agree with that. It takes a lot of courage just to share a fact about oneself, and to be “rated” based on that alone, not cool.

Doesn’t make for a safe place to confide. Isn’t that the basis of Therapeer?
I apologize if I’ve misinterpreted anything, I couldn’t help but notice that those that didn’t contribute as much as others in a chat were looked down upon, so to speak. They even felt discouraged to continue speaking, and that was saddening in itself.

I don’t agree with “rating” people in this environment. I feel Therapeer has potential in creating something different, let’s not “rate” people. Because, isn’t that what divides us? Isn’t this why we need an app like this to begin with? I’ve been searching for an app that has a community of people who are raw, who need to vent and confide, but without the ratings and need to feel “better” than others. Please be that app.

First of all Therapeer is truly a game changer in the mental health space. I have been along time user of Therapeer and some of the support I have got here is incredible.
However in recent times Therapeer has run into several issues in great reason due to some users on Therapeer creating substantial drama, and harassing other members. The current admin is not consistent with enforcing guidelines, and is known to play favorites. So how you are treated depends largely on how much you schmooze with her. Most peers have lost trust and feel their voices are silenced or not heard. They are afraid to voice their concerns due to fear of retaliation.
Admin does make attempts to appear “inclusive “ but it’s all a front.
I believe the developers will do well to real monitor this to ensure that Therapeer does not further lose credibility.

It’s a great platform. I definitely feel like I was able to help others and I was also able to be helped by others.
I started by joining rooms as a supportive peer which was cool. Most people are very active.
However when I hosted my own room 2 of the 3 supporting peers were inactive for a majority of the session.
I did not like this and even more so once I realized there was no option to kick them out. They were taking spots maybe others could've utilized.
Once Therapeer has the option to remove inactive peers after a certain amount of time and also rate peers somehow and/or leave peer reviews I can’t give 5 stars yet.

I really love the idea of having others share experiences with you. It’s difficult to opened up in general and I feel that talking to people who ACTUALLY understand what issues may be affecting out mental health. I hope that Therapeer and more attention can be given to mental illnesses to help find effective healing/support. Talking about how we feel is the very first step to healing, Therapeer really helps you make that first step without feeling uncomfortable. It’s ok to reach a hand out even though you’re in a dark place, maybe the helping hand will lead you to greatness and brighten someone else’s life.

The controlled peer atmosphere on Therapeer really sets the stage for a respectful and serious environment for you to have dedicated space to discuss your issues, rather than an anything-goes chat room. It does leave me better than when I logged in, and I love that you are encouraged to support others too. Great app and a good alternative to being alone or calling a crisis line when you are sad but not in danger.

you always need a strangers view vs your friends because those people will really give you insight.
Therapeer really helps if your scared to go to therapy, it’s actually motivated me to want to get real help.
This is a genuine review after my first time using it, the people are nice and you can pick the age and everything, i really recommend it.
your never alone as you think

I’m a moderator for Therapeer and I have throughly enjoyed being a part of this community! I love being able to talk to and help people! I normally act as a peer in order to listen to others and give them some advice and support, but I also host my own rooms if I’m having a difficult day. I love that you can choose your areas of “expertise” and the rooms are catered to people who have experience with the topics being discussed. In 2012 I attempted suicide, and I wish there had been an app like this back then! I honestly think Therapeer has so much potential and could help many people! As a moderator I’m so glad that I have the honor of talking with many different people on a regular basis! :) Thanks so much!!

I myself have been in need to talk to someone and saw Therapeer. Like many others i thought there was going to be a catch to it which is usually that you have to pay alot of money to get help. Super inconvinient btw. Luckily, this one is completely free!! Also i found by helping others with their problems it actually helped me feel alot better. Would definitely recommend 100%!

In my very first session,I got to get to the root of one of my current life’s most pestering obstacles. It brought a lot of understanding and problem solving from people who aren’t judgmental and self centered. Although , yes, you will have some weirdos on there expressing their pin up needs. All in all I have to say take a leap into Therapeer and see if it works out for you!

What a beautiful idea. People help each other going through a thought time. It just pops up on your phone if you are free to help, you just enter the chat. It gives positivity, kindness, care and guidance. I give care more than I receive but it just feels good to help someone going through something. And hopefully when I’ll need to vent, I know that I can do to strangers who I will not be afraid of judgment and that will be impartial. Brilliant idea.

I had never tried this site before and was pleasantly surprised to see how wonderful and supportive all the peer therapists were. They understood my problem, they lived through it themselves, and were there to offer their support and their understanding. It help me to really feel a little better about the circumstances that I’m going through. I would recommend this site to anyone going through stress or depression.

This helped me so much in a situation I was in. I spoke to real people and they gave me great feedback. I felt better when the chat closed. I love the fact that they allow you to text and give you a whole 60 mins. I also helped other people with their situations and gave them my advice and it feels nice to help someone in need especially when they really need it.

I love this, really helpful. I love the feeling I get when I can help somebody who’s struggling so they can at least feel a little better. I would definitely recommend Therapeer to so many, without a doubt one of the best apps I’ve ever come across. One thing I would love that can be added to Therapeer if possible is a calling feature because I feel that if added, we would be able to better assist others 🙂

(Update: glitch seems to be gone/fixed - new rating of 5 stars! Love Therapeer !)
When I’m in a session and I try to scroll up (to read past messages) it seems to freeze or just not work properly - requiring a refresh each time I try to catch up with a conversation/session. Overall I like Therapeer and the opportunity it provides to help others in need. Thank you for the solid effort!

I was very reluctant to try anything like this but Therapeer is designed to be very private and discreet. Therapeer is like a warm hug when you need it. The people on here give relatable and genuine advice. I highly recommend Therapeer to anyone who is having a bad day or simply just need to have a comforting conversation to gain support for their struggles. I honestly feel like Therapeer can save lives. Such positive and uplifting advice I received the first time I used. After my first session my mood was much better and I had a lot more hope. Please try Therapeer if you are struggling.

My first time opening a room and I didn’t know what to expect. I’m so glad it was a “room” that was not about anyones grief but my own. For once I didn’t have to be strong for someone else. I was open minded and they listened. They understand and stayed with me the entire hour. The 3 people in the room provided 3 different prospectives and it did help. I have a long way to go but when I’m overwhelmed I’ll try this again. I will say out of all the apps I’ve tried “betterhelp, mygrief, and prayer hotline” this was the quickest and most effective help.

I came in here using Therapeer to help me talk to other people about my struggles. But now I come in here to see where I stand and get a better view point on how I could change. I realized that my mind is against me, it doesn’t want me to grow. It wants me to be the same and do comfortable things, but for what!! It just hurts me in the end! I don’t know why my mind would do that to me!😭 I feel betrayed!!😖😡 F%k you mind!! Your no good!!! I didn’t realize that until a fellow this app member helped me realize that. Use Therapeer to help you prosper. Don’t give no excuses. At the end of the day, you can change your life and ONLY You.

I can't believe I just now found Therapeer. The whole idea of helping myself by helping others while being able to ask help from others as well is a great idea. Sometimes it's nice to have an impartial group of peers going through similar situations to chat with. Therapeer is just the ticket.

A while back I tried some others, even posted on subreddits that were supposed to be a similar concept, but found constant criticism regardless of if I was asking for help or trying to give it.

I'm sure I'm not perfect at this whole giving help thing, but if someone just needs an ear to listen and to help process issues, Therapeer is awesome.

I was in a pit of serious depression and hard feelings, I just needed for someone to consul me and just talk to me about how I felt. Instead of that, I got one person tell me that “I’m gonna be fine” (as I was considering suicide). One person completely inactive the entire chat. And one person who just argued with me!

If you are in need of therapy, you would have a better time going an omegal and talking to random people. Also, they are constantly trying to make you buy there therapy credits, or do hours of work for one session.

What the heck I need emotional support and I can’t even express myself with out some one giving me a kudos so once again I am not supposed to function without people approval this is what is wrong with the world and the only way to get someone to hear what I got to say is by writing this bad review maybe that could have bee solved by listing to the words of us all

On command help center available at your fingertips! For many, remaining full Anonymous is very important and while call centers have a voice and phone number those in need are protected here. For those of us who have been through traumatic events and rebuilt a life with resilience, giving back is easy. You can help serve everyday!

I love that I can support others when I can, while additionally being about to ask for help when I need it- and it’s there! No questions asked.
Having the support of others who can empathize in a kind, nonjudgmental way is so helpful. It’s nice to let things off my heart and mind in a confidential setting.

Honestly I’m so happy with Therapeer and being able to talk about issues with other people and not being able to be judged by them is an awesome feeling. Honestly if you are going through issues and just want to vent and need people to talk I highly recommend Therapeer because it is amazing and I enjoy it.

Therapeer is incredible! Love being able to uplift people and be uplifted all in one app. This experience has been nothing but therapeutic and the people on Therapeer share good advice. Totally recommend Therapeer for those that want to make a difference in someone life or those that need some guidance and encouraging words.

I get to share my stuff anonymously, without pressure, or a service that I just can’t afford. I’ve gotten some great feedback with perspectives I wouldn’t have considered. I’ve also found it rewarding to share my experiences with people who are going through something I’ve been through.
