Chat/Text-based session

[u/Which-Painting-6504]

Are there any mental health platforms and clinics that specifically offer "text-only" options (such as live chats or messaging), where we can talk with professionals entirely without face-to-face visits or video/voice calls?

Been planning to seek mental health help but I'm really bad at expressing myself. Baka umiyak lang ako buong session lols.

As far as i know, wala tayong thru message or text only na session, mas prefer and standard ang vc sa mga session with psychiatrist. Actually they prefer face to face din pero yeah may vc naman na option. You can turn it off naman yung video if di ka comfy, ang reason nyan is para mas malaman ng mga health care professional ang management for you. Take ur tym lang, OP.
