As someone with a small private practice, I often struggle to connect with clients outside my immediate area. During the research, I shared how an international platform like Thera could help therapists expand their reach while ensuring quality care. This feels like the future of therapy.

Thera provides a great opportunity to expand my practice where I can stay focused on my mission and service without diluting my focus on other things. This isn’t just going to be another platform: it’s already a movement that I’m proud to be a part of.

I shared during the market research how disheartening it is to be paid as little as $30 per session on other platforms, despite my qualifications and experience. To make ends meet, I’ve had to see up to 50 clients a week, which left me burned out and unable to give my full attention to each client. What excites me about Thera is their commitment to fair pay and respecting therapists’ time, which will allow us to focus on providing quality care instead of chasing quantity.”

In the market research, I talked about how many people avoid therapy because of the cost, and I appreciated that Thera was asking therapists for input on this. What I love is their plan to offer both pay-per-session and subscription models with a sliding scale. This balance ensures that therapy is affordable for clients while still compensating therapists fairly. It’s a model that I feel reflects the heart of why we do this work.

One of the main gaps I highlighted during the research was how existing platforms fail to consider cultural nuances. As a therapist, I’ve seen how much it helps clients when they feel understood within their cultural and regional context. Thera’s focus on prioritising culturally sensitive matches reassures me that they’re creating a platform where therapists can truly connect with their clients on a deeper level.

I shared with Thera how challenging it is for therapists like me to market ourselves while managing a practice. Most of us aren’t marketers, and existing platforms don’t do much to help us get seen. What’s exciting about Thera is how they’re creating a space where clients can find us easily, without us having to spend hours trying to stand out online. It’s going to be a huge relief.

During the research, I mentioned how other platforms often create a high turnover of clients, which makes it hard to build trust and truly help someone over time. Thera’s approach encourages clients to take the time to build a relationship with their therapist, which will help both sides get the most out of the process. It feels like they genuinely understand the importance of continuity in therapy.

I talked to Thera about how many platforms focus only on traditional therapy models, leaving no room for holistic approaches. As someone who practices integrative psychotherapy, it was great to see Thera being open to these methods. Their willingness to support a range of practices makes me confident that I can provide the best care to my clients without limitations.
