1. Apps seem to be a useful tool. They help a lot of people who either won't use or are not helped by traditional therapy. Think of them like workbooks - they're an alternative that may be better for some.
2. There is no country as far as I'm aware that can meet the demand for mental health services, from the most socialized to the most open market. None. Therapists are always full, most people don't want to be therapists, and the demand for them is super high.
I have no idea how to solve this. A lot of therapists also tend to stop being therapists pretty early in their career or radically reduce how many patients they see. Basically it just sucks to be a therapist no matter how much we pay and we can't make it better.
