Think twice

This is just another company trying to make money off of people’s issues. They overbook their therapist, and they don’t even have the ability to see you. Then if somethings wrong with the app, you miss your appointment, and you’re not able to connect with your therapist. Then they book you for an intake with the therapist that you’ve spent time with and then my therapist is like, I don’t know why they booked an intake. I don’t have the availability at the time of my appointment. left me in a panic attack. and nobody reached out to me until the next day because I couldn’t get on the app!! I highly recommend finding somebody local that you can see or ensure that they are reputable. Not somebody just trying to make money. I am a psych nurse and I know how much money people off of people’s problems. It’s sad and the only way we stop it is by getting rid of these apps we have gotten away from face to face. I suggest that you don’t have anything major going on in your life if you go with this company.👎🏽

Absolutely AMAZING

This app has everything I needed and have to have or I’ll die! I suffered in active addiction since 2009. I got clean a couple of times, but none of the other treatment programs I’ve tried have what Affect does! I feel like I have an entire support system in my pocket at all times! Whoever thought of this is an angel! I love this and plan to share it with anyone and everyone who is struggling to live life again! Thank you Affect!

Affect is EFFECTIVE

I have been a struggling alcoholic for a long time and gone through many programs. Some have been better than others but none have had the team of people at the ready to help me during my worst times like this app. My counselor listens to me at my most incoherent and still helps find a way to bring me back to center. If you have the same struggles give AFFECT Recovery a try.
