Psychotherapists, social workers … the application allows you to choose from health professionals, who have experience working with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBTQ) or even indigenous communities.
Anxiety, panic disorder, depression, stress, insomnia … the platform has a panoply of specialists to meet the needs of its customers, but it has its limits that the company prefers to clearly establish.
“MindBeacon is not a crisis service. If you are in a crisis, or if it is an emergency, please dial 911 or go to the nearest hospital emergency room, ”MindBeacon points out on its website.
