What VindeenTherapeut.be does

VindeenTherapeut.be is a Belgian web-based directory and referral platform, founded around 2010-2011 and operated by the Gent-based commercial partnership I-Publicity comm.v (ondernemingsnummer BE 0659.889.614). It functions as a two-sided marketplace connecting individuals seeking mental health support with therapists, psychotherapists, coaches, and psychologists across Belgium. The platform's core product is a searchable directory that filters practitioners by 100+ support areas, therapy type, target demographic, consultation format (in-person, video, chat, email, phone), accessibility features, language, and proximity. Therapy seekers use the directory free of charge; revenue is generated on the supply side through paid therapist subscriptions on 1, 2, or 3-year terms and a secondary fee-based credit system for placing workshops, courses, and training activities. A small team of approximately five people operates the platform, supported by a partner network of Belgian psychotherapy training institutes that provide referral traffic via banner placements, and by technology integrations including Mollie for payments, Postmark for contact-request email delivery, and Fathom Analytics for privacy-focused traffic monitoring. The operating company has expanded the model into adjacent Belgian verticals (psychology, coaching, physiotherapy) under sibling brands and into the Netherlands via Vind-een-Therapeut.nl. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; revenue figures are not reported.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Doctolib: European leader in online healthcare booking that has expanded from GP/doctor scheduling into therapist booking across France, Germany, Italy, and Belgium. Competes for the same therapist supply and patient demand as VindeenTherapeut.be but with deeper product (booking, telehealth, EHR integrations) and large institutional funding.
• Zocdoc: US-based patient booking marketplace covering doctors and mental health providers, where therapists pay for subscription listings and patients book appointments. Closest large-scale analogue of the directory-plus-subscription model VindeenTherapeut.be operates in Belgium.

Direct peers

• Therapie.de: Germany's leading therapist and coach directory with therapist-paid listings, detailed specialisation filters, and content on therapy types - functionally near-identical to VindeenTherapeut.be, but serving the German market.
• Jameda: German doctor and therapist directory with paid premium listings, reviews, and online booking. Direct marketplace competitor in the broader DACH region, with overlapping business model (subscription listings) and target user base.
• Vind-een-Psycholoog.be: Belgian psychologist directory under the same I-Publicity umbrella, focused specifically on psychologists. Sister site with overlapping supply and demand mechanics in the same geography.
• Vind-een-Coach.be: Belgian coach directory operated by I-Publicity comm.v. Sister platform to VindeenTherapeut.be with the same directory-and-listing business model, targeting the coaching segment rather than therapy.
• Vind-een-Therapeut.nl: Dutch version of VindeenTherapeut.be operated by the same parent. Closest direct peer in terms of brand, mechanics, and product, but serving the Netherlands market.

Emerging players

• OpenUp: European mental health platform offering employer-sponsored online therapy sessions, including in Belgium. Indirect competitor that bypasses directory-based discovery by offering direct B2B teletherapy access.
• Spill: UK-based workplace mental health platform providing therapy via chat, with employer-paid subscriptions. Represents the trend toward direct-to-consumer / employer-sponsored teletherapy that competes with traditional therapy directories.

Regional players

• PsyCLE / Psyonline.be: Belgian online psychology booking/listing platforms focused on reimbursed psychologists. Direct regional competitor for both therapist supply and therapy-seeker demand in Belgium.
