Calmerry is a simple subscription for people who want to talk to a counselor mostly in writing. The homepage says plans start at $50 a week for Messaging Therapy, billed monthly, with unlimited texting and a licensed counselor who responds 5 days a week. Plans that add live video include two or four 30-minute sessions a month, and Calmerry says four 30-minute sessions can be combined into two 60-minute ones. Every plan includes a personalized therapy plan, free counselor switching, a mood tracker, guided journaling and a library of more than 100 resources. Calmerry states that all its therapists hold valid licenses from their states and are vetted by its team. It does not take insurance, though it will provide a receipt for reimbursement. The 30-minute session length is the main limit: if you want a full hour every week, a session-based service gives you more live time.
