“My therapist, Rhea Kisling is amazing. It’s hard finding a therapist that is comfortable to work with and fits your personality/needs. Brightside did a wonderful job pairing her with me. Whether it was pure luck or the questionnaire I filled out, she is perfect for my needs. I appreciate the psychiatrist offers natural remedies along with prescriptions to minimize the side effects of the typical meds. Overall I am very happy with Brightside. Therapy/medication has dramatically improved my quality of life. I’m still a work in progress, but I’m positive that with continued therapy I will get there. As a patient, you have to put in the effort though for any of it to work. Mindset and willingness to make changes are 90% of the battle. Therapy only works if you’re willing to engage. Brightside offers the best help I’ve received yet in 20+ years. Worth every penny!”
“It’s been very helpful and convenient for me specially, since I’ve been having a lot of health problems lately. They’ve been very understanding and helping me through these health problems that came up unexpectedly.”
“I am a single mother, full time college student, and soooo grateful that I decided to starting using Brightside. It is so nice to be able to video chat a therapist and a psychiatrist. The lessons are very helpful and informative. They make me think about my mental illnesses in different ways and teach me ways around things and what is healthy. It is so nice to have the option to message my therapist or psychiatrist at any time of day. The safety plan feature is such a good idea. There is a crisis section you can go to if you need to. You can request meds to be refilled from the app (or website), you can reschedule appointments(24hrs in advance), you can change your preferred pharmacy. I am really loving Brightside, so far. I definitely would recommend it to anyone considering it!”
“I feel like my mental health is slowly getting better. And I really like the therapy lessons I get because it really helps me understand what’s going on with me and how I can help myself”
“I have yet to find a provider I feel comfortable with through this company. So far, my providers have given me mixed information and lack communication skills.”
“I am really enjoying the Brightside app. My therapist and psychiatrist are both great and very responsive. They are committed to helping me get better and be the best me I can. Very grateful for this app!”
“I have been very happy with my experience with Brightside. I greatly appeciate the fact that I was able to choose my providers. Both my psychiatrist and therapist have been wonderful.”
“My psychiatrist is great. She's always prepared and keeps track of my progress. Therapy is a different story. Tried to begin therapy twice and both times the "provider" cancelled at the last minute. This has planted deep roots of distrust in the therapy program and I cannot recommend participating in it. It's strange to receive submissions into a "drawing" for interacting with other departments at Brightside. It's a lottery, gambling, and not a great fit for people with impulse control issues. Again, more evidence of not really understanding the target community.”
