Psique

What Psique does

Psique - Clínica Terapêutica is a privately-held, multidisciplinary therapeutic clinic founded in 1999 in Porto Alegre, Brazil, and positioned as the city's first clinic of its kind to integrate mental and physical healthcare under one roof. The company employs a team of more than 30 specialists delivering an unusually broad portfolio of services that spans psychotherapy (individual, couples, family, and group), psychiatry, physiotherapy and physiatry, osteopathy, acupuncture, chiropractic care, clinical and sports nutrition, art therapy, therapeutic dance, occupational therapy, yoga, neuropsychology, and psychopedagogy, including credentialed psychological assessments for TJRS courts and Federal Police firearm licenses. Core delivery is in-person at a single headquarters location at Rua Felicíssimo de Azevedo, 1362, Bairro Auxiliadora, with extended hours Monday–Friday and Saturday mornings.

The business operates a hybrid revenue model combining clinical services and professional education. Clinical revenue is generated on a per-session or per-treatment-cycle basis, paid through either private out-of-pocket spend or one of three accepted health insurance plans (Mediservice, Bradesco Saúde, Saúde Moinhos). A secondary revenue stream comes from a 600-hour Art Therapy Specialization course delivered in partnership with Faculdade Mário Quintana (FAMAQUI) under UBAAT, CFP, MEC, and CNE/CES accreditation, plus room rental (Aluguel de Salas) to external healthcare professionals using underutilized clinic capacity. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, with patients acquired through Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn and converted via WhatsApp-based appointment booking and phone.

The company has no external investment, no parent entity, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed leadership team in the input data. Operations remain concentrated in a single clinic in Porto Alegre with no geographic expansion or M&A signals. No AI, software platform, app, or API products are offered — the offering is a human-delivered clinical service augmented by an educational certification program and facility-sharing arrangement.
