About Selfapy
Selfapy offers online therapy programs to provide people suffering from mental illnesses with fast and flexible access to professional help.
Who We Are
Selfapy's medical product provides flexible and easily accessible online therapy programs for people 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 - the costs are covered by all statutory health insurance companies in Germany. The online therapy programs are available as an app on smartphones or tablets as well as a web version on desktop. The CE-certified medical product offers efficient, guideline-compliant, and non-drug therapy with proven effectiveness. Selfapy was developed by clinical psychologists.
Our Mission
In Germany, more than 25% of the adult population is affected by a mental illness annually. Often, they have to wait three to six months for treatment - a period in which symptoms can worsen and illnesses can become chronic. Only every second affected person dares to seek help. Selfapy's goal is to provide people with mental illnesses with flexible and low-threshold psychological support with an innovative digital solution.
Our Vision
No one suffering from a mental illness should have to wait for help. In Germany, 18 million people suffer from a mental illness such as burnout, depression, or anxiety disorders. Often they have to wait up to six months for treatment. Selfapy offers flexible online therapy programs for people in mental distress. Our medical product is clinically effective and based on cognitive-behavioral therapy methods. The costs are covered by all health insurance companies in Germany.
Our Founders
The severe shortage in the care of people with mental illnesses was recognized early by Nora Blum (psychologist), Katrin Bermbach (psychologist), and Farina Schurzfeld. They jointly founded Selfapy in 2016 to facilitate access to psychological services. Today, over 40,000 users benefit from Selfapy's online therapy offerings.
