Frequently Asked Questions

Is this course a replacement for therapy?

No. This course provides psychoeducation and skill-building based on evidence-based therapeutic frameworks, but it is not a substitute for individualized professional mental health treatment. It works best as a supplement to therapy, providing structured learning between sessions and helping patients understand the treatment approaches their therapists may be using.

What if I'm currently in crisis?

If you're experiencing a mental health crisis, please contact emergency services (988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, 911) or go to your nearest emergency room. This course is designed for skill-building and education, not crisis intervention. The platform includes safety monitoring features that alert assigned providers if distress is detected in your interactions, ensuring appropriate clinical follow-up.

How is this different from self-help books or YouTube videos?

This course provides structured, sequential learning with interactive exercises, progress tracking, and integration with provider oversight. Unlike passive consumption of content, you'll complete skill-practice exercises, self-assessments, and receive feedback on your understanding. Additionally, your assigned provider can see your progress and tailor therapy sessions based on what you're learning, creating a coordinated treatment approach that's not possible with generic self-help resources.
