Hit or miss
Good platform, but the quality of your service ultimately depends upon the quality of your individual provider.

It's alright
It's a decent resource if you are in an area too remote to get in-person help, but it is not as good as regular in-person therapy with someone you trust.

AMAZING!
Very helpful for those with social anxiety who are too scared to go to in-person therapy! I recommend this to anyone who needs therapy appointments to be flexible!
Love the teen version
I love the therapist I was matched to! We clicked instantly and she's helped me through many hardships.
Not Necessary for Students
Besides all of the controversies surrounding this resource, I don't think students must use it. Most universities offer free or reduced-price counseling centers for their students, which use real counselors or at least counselors-in-training. I got a lot more mileage out of those counseling centers than I did any website.
Mental Health Mediocrity
I got the offer for Bold.org members, tried it out, and do not recommend. My therapist was late to our first meeting and then asked me if I've tried to find ways to be happy so I wouldn't be depressed, what am I paying for if I'm just going to get a response my family members would give me?
Maybe it would be good for people who don't have depression, so pay at your own risk.

Wouldn't reccomend
After seeing it advertised by so many youtuber I decided to try it out.... instant regret. I didn't like it at all.
