About Selfapy

Selfapy offers online therapy programs that provide flexible and fast access to professional support for people with mental illnesses.

Who We Are

Selfapy's medical product delivers flexible and accessible online therapy programs for individuals with mental illnesses. The online therapy programs for depression, generalized anxiety disorder, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and chronic pain can be prescribed by doctors or psychotherapists, and the costs are covered by all statutory health insurance companies in Germany. The programs are available as an app for smartphones and tablets as well as a web version on desktop. Selfapy's CE-certified medical product provides effective, guideline-compliant, and non-medication-based therapy with proven efficacy. The company was founded by clinical psychologists.

Our Mission

In Germany, over 25% of the adult population is affected by mental illness annually. Many of them face long waiting periods for treatment, sometimes three to six months, during which symptoms can worsen and illnesses become chronic. Only half of those affected seek help. Selfapy's goal is to provide flexible and low-threshold psychological support through an innovative digital solution.

Our Vision

18 million people in Germany suffer from mental illnesses such as burnout, depression, or anxiety disorders, often waiting up to six months for treatment. Selfapy offers flexible online therapy programs for people in psychological distress. Their clinically effective medical product is based on cognitive behavioral therapy methods, and costs are covered by all German health insurance providers.

Founders

Selfapy was founded in 2016 by Nora Blum (psychologist), Katrin Bermbach (psychologist), and Farina Schurzfeld to ease access to psychological support. Today, over 40,000 users benefit from Selfapy's online therapy offerings.
