No, you cannot add your teen to your existing Talkspace account.
Every Talkspace member, including teens, must have their own individual account. This is required to protect privacy, ensure accurate billing, and maintain proper medical records. Sharing an account between a parent/guardian and a teen, or with anyone else, is not allowed.
If you created an account with your own information by mistake, it can't be changed into a teen account. Your teen will need to create a new account using their own information and a unique email address. Each Talkspace account must have a different email address, so the same email can't be used for more than one account.
When creating their own separate account, teens need to enter:
- Their first and last name
- Their personal email address
- Their date of birth
If you have a health plan or workplace benefit that includes dependent coverage, your teen will still need to create their own Talkspace account using their information. During sign-up, they’ll have an opportunity to share benefit information so we can verify that they’re covered as a dependent.
