What Vivamus does

Vivamus FZ-LLC is a Dubai-based mental health clinic headquartered in Dubai Healthcare City that provides evidence-based psychological therapy, psychiatry, psychological assessments, and speech and language therapy to adults, children, adolescents, couples, schools, and corporate clients. Founded in 2017 and operating with approximately 17 employees, the practice is held out as a multidisciplinary team of DHA-licensed clinical psychologists, counsellors, and psychiatrists, several of whom hold UK credentials (HCPC registration, BPS Chartered status) and method-specific certifications such as Gottman Method and EMDR. Its service portfolio spans individual therapy, marriage and couples counselling, child and adolescent therapy, adult and child psychiatry, adult and child psychological assessments (cognitive, ADHD, autism, neurodevelopmental), and speech and language therapy, supported by structured group programmes including an 8-week online DBT Skills Group, a 3-Day Marathon Intensive Couples Retreat, a Relationship Wellness Course, a Next Level Couples Course, and Discernment Counselling. Therapy approaches offered include CBT, DBT, ACT, EMDR, and EMDR Intensives.

The underlying technology stack is conventional: the company's website (vivamus.me) functions as a content marketing and intake channel, supported by Facebook and Instagram, while service delivery is conducted in person at the Dubai Healthcare City clinic and via online video sessions across the broader Middle East. No software products, mobile applications, APIs, or proprietary technology platforms are disclosed; the differentiators rest on clinician credentials, codified therapy programmes, and regulatory licensing (MOHAP approval code WH26933 and DHCC authorisation).

Vivamus generates revenue on a fee-for-service professional services model, with pricing denominated in UAE Dirhams (AED). Individual and couples sessions are billed per appointment, while premium group programmes are sold as fixed-fee packages (e.g., Marathon Intensive at AED 16,500, Relationship Wellness Course at AED 6,450, Next Level Couples Course from AED 8,200). The go-to-market motion is sales-led and direct: customers reach the clinic via phone, email, WhatsApp, and website contact forms, supported by educational blog content and social media for top-of-funnel awareness. Distribution combines the single Dubai physical clinic (direct enterprise/B2C field sales) with online sessions across the region and on-site corporate engagements, addressing both individual consumers and organisational buyers in the corporate wellness and K-12 school segments.

Broad incumbents

• Talkspace: Online therapy and psychiatry platform; competes for the digital arm of Vivamus's practice and increasingly partners with corporates — adjacent competitor in B2B EAP demand.
• Priory Group: Large UK-headquartered mental health services provider across inpatient, outpatient and digital therapy; comparable on therapy modalities and clinical-grade delivery but at much greater scale and geographic breadth.
• Headspace: Digital mental health and mindfulness platform targeting consumers and employers; overlapping on corporate wellness channel and mindfulness-based approaches (ACT/DBT skills).
• Calm: Digital wellness platform offering meditation, sleep and mental health content; comparable on stress management, mindfulness, and corporate wellness partnerships in the MENA region.
• BetterHelp: Largest online therapy platform; competes directly with Vivamus's online therapy channel for cross-border clients across the Middle East, but offers generic rather than specialised in-person care.
