It exists. But you will encounter a few issues:
-
$5 is not very much money in 3rd world countries either. If you want to speak to someone with a doctorate you can expect to pay a little more than that.
-
health insurance almost certainly won't cover any percentage of a session with a therapist that isn't on their books
-
tax. A healthcare professional is generally looking after their own books too. So the only way they will bother dealing with Americans is wmthe incentive of earning in dollars anyway
-
like others have said, culture differences will play a role in the kind of care you will receive.
-
recommends for a psychiatrist or meds will need a prescription and that won't work across borders. You will need to get referred locally too.
-
a licensed therapist may not be licensed in your country, or worse, may be a hack or a scammer
But it most certainly exists. I've got a mate that treats people overseas. I believe there's also an app that connects you with someone available too. Betterhelp, Talkspace to name a few.
So an army of a thousand twitter bots will cost a thousand dollars a year? That seems shruggable.
