You answer a few questions, get matched with a therapist who works with 13–26 year olds, and meet by video, usually weekly, with skill activities in the app in between. Many insurance plans are accepted; otherwise it costs $150 a session after a $200 first appointment. Joon is now part of Handspring Health, so new sign-ups finish on Handspring's site.
