I really think that I need therapy and my family also think so and tells me this in regular intervals.

But there are two main blockers with getting therapy:

Extreme long waiting list's, estimated waiting times of 1-3 years
I am so bad at doing stuff on time / arriving at appointment's, that this will fail any therapy where I have to arrive physically

I am thinking about getting online therapy, on a platform like for example BetterHelp, but I always hear bad things about these platforms.

Do anyone here as experience with such platforms? Do they keep the conversations private or sell them?

Not sure what your insurance situation is, but I've had a really good experience though Rula. My therapist is great, and we have a biweekly session set up. I generally do it from my work truck.
