In 2019, two therapists set out to tackle a complicated problem.
One does not have to be a therapist to realize that life is complicated. But finding the right therapist, with whom you can build a strong alliance, doesn't have to be. This is the founding principle of It's Complicated, a global network of +2500 therapists on a mission to build the world's most sustainable marketplace for therapy.A few years in, we've helped tens of thousands of clients and counting, and built thriving therapy communities in cities such as Berlin, Amsterdam, London, Lisbon, and Barcelona as well as online.
It's Complicated is not suitable for acute psychological or medical crises or emergency situations.If you are in a serious crisis and need urgent help, please contact a local emergency service or use one of these resources instead.
