I follow a content creator in the mental health space who offers group and 1:1 help with anxiety. Without doxing this person, they do have credentials in this area but what they offer is called coaching rather than therapy. 

I've been resistent to getting help up to this point and took what for me is a really big leap by booking a free call to learn more about what they offer. I'm just torn about if this is the right use of my money, or if I might be doing this to "get out" of real therapy?

I really like their philosophy, their personality and way of speaking to people. I think finding someone you vibe with is half the battle and if I managed to find them this way, who cares what it's called, right? But I just don't know if I'm making the right choice. Does anyone have experience with this kind of support group? Is it legitimate?
