Is Talklet therapy?No! Talklet is not therapy, nor are we a replacement for therapy. We are not healthcare and do not offer mental health services. Talklet is an informal conversation between an individual and a Talklet listener to talk through a specific topic. Whereas therapy lasts for 6 or more sessions, Talklet’s conversations are self-contained in one session. Talklet is a low-commitment introduction to mental wellness.
