There are similar services/startups in NYC i've interacted with.
My experience was it is fruitless endeavor trying to find a therapist that actually practices CBT for less than 200/hr.

We aren't a directory - we will call/email therapists for you to ensure anyone we recommend to you is available and a fit. We have called 50+ therapists for some users.
The problem with the directory model is you still have to reach out to each therapist individually.
And ya, a lot of therapists have CBT thrown in as a buzzword - we screen for that when we talk to therapists if a user wants a CBT therapist.
For me, it seems crazy in the year 2020 that a therapist wouldn't introduce basic analytics into the process with something like a brief mood survey after each session to know if therapy is ...for lack of a better term..."working".
Zero therapists I've found via the NYC therapist-finder sites do this.
