Is the money a requirement? Ie. could you volunteer as a free resource, or would that mess the market dynamics up? What is the thinking?
LW has members from many countries. Are we sure it's legal for people without a medical license to charge money for providing mental help in all of those countries?
Isn't the usual trick is to put a very nice disclaimer saying that "this does not substitute professional advice, and if you are depressed you should visit a therapist" or something contradictory that removes all your belief in how much help that'll give you.
I was careful in my post to use language indicating that this is not therapy, just having someone to talk to (e.g. the way a life coach might talk to you). If you think I could have made that more clear, feel free to send me PMs with suggestions (ideally based on legal research).
