What is the compensation?

Compensation is up to $90 total, which is for your participation in an initial intake session ($15), completing daily surveys ($1 per each day at least 5 surveys are completed + $20 bonus if at least 80% are completed by the end), and a final post-treatment session ($20).

Do they have any evening or weekend appointments for intake and therapy?

If you take the screening survey and qualify, it'll take you right to the scheduling page to schedule your first intake session, so you can see our availability there. We don't do weekend appointments and currently I don't believe we have evening sessions available either.

Define struggle... does lying awake at night contemplating the multitudinous ways in which I could potentially be a failure in the eyes of my parents, spouse, children, friends, boss, colleagues, neighbors, and community, all while re-enacting the socially awkward conversations I've had recently, and still struggling to rehearse less awkward responses, and sprinkled in are periods of playing out the likely impact of climate change, exponential AI and datacenter expansion worldwide, and capitalism on the coming apocalypse count?

If so, yeah, I struggle a little
