Talkspace is working on an NIH-funded, IRB-approved study with the University of Washington about online therapy for depression. The study offers participants 12 weeks of free online care from licensed therapists via video calls and text messages on the Talkspace platform, as well as monetary compensation for their time completing surveys.
Located in one of the follow U.S. states, due to therapist licensure: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Texas, Washington.
Some of these states might reach capacity soon, but participants can be placed on a waitlist if their state’s caseload is currently full. We’re also actively recruiting therapists and hope to open to more states soon!
Participants must be:
- Over 18
- Experiencing symptoms of depression
- English- or Spanish-speaking
- A tablet or smartphone user
