Creator Care is a therapy option set up for digital content creators. If you produce gamer videos, TicTok tips or are deep in the YouTube algorithm whiplash then this could be of interest to you.
Per the vendor's website:
Many creators experience anxiety, burnout, depression, and isolation, yet often face barriers to accessing care.
Currently the service is available only to California digital creators living in CA but they do have plans to expand the service across the U.S.
