Christian Therapist On Demand: Online Therapy App Review 2022

Sign-Up Process

When you first visit Christian Therapist on Demand, you’ll find an informative homepage that will show you steps to download the app. While it may not look very welcoming, since the services are only app-based, you’ll still be able to understand how this faith-based online therapy platform works.

When you scroll further, you’ll see the mental health resources, and further down below, you’ll find links to download the app on Android and iOS via Google Play Store and Apple App Store, respectively.

Also, one of the features of the website includes the blog and shop section that allows you to read articles and buy merchandise. Unlike other online therapy websites, Christian Therapist on Demand does not show any therapist bios or pricing for the treatment.

The sign-up cannot be done via the website, which I find is a drawback. However, once you download the app, you’ll be asked a series of questions about what you’re looking for in therapy. After verifying your email, you’ll be asked to create an account.

The app requires you to upload a picture of yourself during the sign-up process which may cause many people to feel uncomfortable as not many people want to share such private information. If you choose to move on, you’ll find the subscription plans in the next step. There, you’ll be able to read therapist bios and make your choice. Once you’re signed up, your therapist will contact you via the app.

Pricing

Christian Therapist on Demand is affordable and about average as compared to other online therapy apps.

The subscription plan offered by Christian Therapist on Demand are:

A. The Unlimited Messaging: $260 per month. Includes access to three therapy groups moderated by counselors. Messaging and texting anytime. One monthly phone or video session.

B. The Unlimited Messaging Plus: $320 per month. Includes weekly phone or video sessions. Unlimited access to therapy groups moderated by counselors. Messaging, live texting sessions, anytime.

C. The Couple’s Coaching: $380 per month. Includes four weekly sessions. Messaging, live group sessions, worksheets, to be accessed anytime.

Ease Of Use

Once you’ve signed up, the communication between you and your therapist will happen via the app. From there on, you can message your therapist, schedule your sessions, and access other mental health resources, directly. There, you can also change your payment mode, if needed.

The response from the therapist is reported to be fast and accurate. And if you’re not comfortable with the current therapist, you can request a therapist change via the app. The change process is fairly easy.

The privacy policy on the website states that the therapists on the platform all adhere to HIPPA standards of client confidentiality. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any specific details about how they protect the user data on the website. However, they do state that any information given to them cannot be guaranteed to be safe and that users need to use the online therapy platform at their own risk.

Final Verdict

Christian Therapist on Demand is a good choice for you if you’re looking for a more convenient platform to connect with a faith-based counselor. This online therapy platform is easy to chat with a Christian therapist and schedule sessions. Plus, there are a variety of resources available for self-help.

However, they fail to provide details about what types of therapeutic techniques they use. Also, I felt that this platform is not likely the right choice for people looking for help for more serious mental health disorders.

Christian Therapist on Demand is also not for people under the age of 18, nor is it recommended if you are suicidal, have psychosis, need psychiatric care, or medication management. It is not suitable to be used in times of crisis.

Christian Therapist on Demand is a subscription-based online therapy platform that can connect you with a Christian or a faith-based therapist. Unfortunately, the online therapy platform fails to display its motto, doesn’t accept health insurance, doesn’t provide medication management, and also fails to explain its privacy policy to its users.

I hope this review of the newly launched faith-based online therapy app – Christian Therapist on Demand – will help you make the right decision.
