A note from Nicole

Greetings!My name is Dr. Nicole Donato. However; please feel free to call me Nicole. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a life-long lover of knowledge evident by my two master degrees and PhD in Psychology. Additionally; I knew as a teenage girl that I wanted to become a therapist. Thus; since 2006 I have been licensed as a professional counselor.When I started college; I never dreamed of a day that technology would offer a conduit upon which effective therapy services could be provided. Thus; I enjoy working collaboratively with clients through remote counseling to heal emotional disturbances.

What is Talkspace?

Talkspace is the most convenient and affordable way to connect with a licensed therapist — all from the privacy of your device. Send your therapist text, audio, picture, and video messages at any time, and they will respond daily, 5x/week. If you’re looking for the “face-to-face” therapy experience, we also offer Live Video Sessions so you and your therapist can plan to connect in real-time.

How do I get started?

You’ll be prompted to answer a few questions about yourself and your preferences for therapy, and our matching algorithm will suggest three potential therapists. Choose the one that’s the best fit for you, and follow the steps to set up your Talkspace account.

How do I communicate with my therapist?

Your Talkspace “room” is available 24/7 so you never have to wait to share what’s on your mind. Message your therapist whenever something comes up — whether you’re commuting, at the office, or lying in bed. For all Live Video Sessions, you and your therapist will schedule an appointment in advance. All communication is hosted on the Talkspace platform.

How much does Talkspace cost?

Talkspace is a subscription service, offering various plans so you can customize your treatment in a way that’s right for you. Plans range from $65 to $100 per week, but there are no contracts and you can cancel your plan anytime.

How does Talkspace protect my privacy?

At Talkspace, your security is our #1 priority. Our platform is HIPAA-compliant and encrypted banking-grade, industry standard technology. Talkspace always requires a password for use, and our iOS app accommodates Touch ID and Face ID on enabled devices. For more details, read our Privacy Policy.
