What Unipsico does

Unipsico is a Brazilian workers' cooperative (Cooperativa de Trabalho dos Psicólogos de Ribeirão Preto) that delivers outpatient psychotherapy and psychology services to individuals, families, and institutions in and around Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo. Founded in 1999, it comprises 60+ member psychologists offering multiple therapeutic modalities—Psychoanalysis, Cognitive Behavioral, Phenomenological Existential, Jungian, Bioenergetics, and Systemic—across specialty areas including clinical psychology, neuropsychology, health psychology, school psychology, aging psychology, conflict mediation, and multidisciplinary assessment of learning disorders. Services are delivered both in-person across multiple clinic locations in Ribeirão Preto and online, with scheduling via website and WhatsApp.

The company operates a horizontal segmentation strategy with four plan tiers—Plano Individual (adults), Plano Familiar (titular plus dependents), Plano Universitário (university students at R$166.88/session), and Plano Social (low-income families at R$124.28/session). There are no adhesion fees, monthly subscriptions, or loyalty commitments; revenue is generated on a per-session pay-as-you-go basis with annual IGP-M-indexed price adjustments (6.75% scheduled for March 2026). In addition to therapy plans, Unipsico offers lectures, courses, and the +Vida Project, and sells organizational/group services to corporate and educational clients.

Go-to-market is primarily direct-to-consumer via website, WhatsApp, and content marketing, supplemented by channel partnerships with health insurers and benefit providers—UNIMED (core partner), OMINT, and VIVEST—and a collaboration with SMARAPD. The cooperative is part of a national network of psychology cooperatives present in 15 Brazilian cities. There is no external investor, parent company, or venture ownership; governance is exercised by an Executive Board, Administrative Council, and Fiscal Council composed of member psychologists.

Broad incumbents

It competes indirectly with Unipsico by offering broader healthcare access that includes mental health, but does not specialize exclusively in psychotherapy.
