What's a good online (globally available) human therapist or therapy service? (lemm.ee)

I'm suffering from anxiety-related panic attacks and looking to have 1on1 video sessions with a therapist to relieve stress. Ideally available on demand but I'm open to try any good therapy at this point.

I'm sorry I don't have a good suggestion. Just please, don't use BetterHelp. They have already been caught selling health data to advertisers.

That was my immediate thought. No suggestion other than NOT BetterHelp.

Any recommendations? Would love to have a "friend for a call" when I'm having an attack. But I live in Asia so might also need it somehow 24/7. A real human only though.

Thank you. Could you try to recommend one decent path then?
