About us
The average waiting time for a therapy spot for people with mental illnesses in Germany is 5-6 months, and only a fraction of those affected gain access to effective treatment. At Sympatient, we want to counteract this and improve the care situation in Germany through innovative digital therapy offerings. Via the Beavivo platform, we connect therapists to mentally ill people, and with Invirto, new digital care concepts are developed in the form of apps. Both approaches aim to provide patients with quick access to top-quality care.
Our team consists of optimistic doers from various fields (psychotherapy, design, business, IT...). We are passionate about what we do and share the vision of improving the world for people affected by mental illnesses.
We value diversity and strive for an inclusive workplace that welcomes people from different backgrounds. We do not tolerate discrimination based on skin color, religion, origin, gender, physical impairment, disability, or age and actively counteract it.
How to apply
If this sounds exciting, we look forward to your application with your resume, licensing certificate, and optionally a short cover letter (max. 1 page) explaining your motivation and your group license. We will get back to you as soon as possible. If you have any questions, feel free to write to [email protected].
