Between French, Dutch, and yourself
Therapy in English, online, wherever in Belgium you live. No referral, no waiting list.
In a country that runs in two languages, an expat often lands squarely in neither — and therapy in a third-best language is harder than it needs to be.

Why therapy in English
A third language for the hardest conversation is one too many
Belgium already asks you to navigate French and Dutch, and for a lot of people who move here — for the institutions, for work — neither becomes the language they dream in. Doing therapy in your second or third language means translating the feeling before you've felt it, simplifying to the sentence you can build rather than the one you mean.
In English you don't have to do that. You can be vague, contradict yourself, start again. English-speaking practices in Brussels fill fast and elsewhere are scarce; online, you choose from everyone working in English and meet from home.
What we work with
What brings people here
Loneliness and isolation
When your social life is made entirely of colleagues, and everyone who knew you before is in another time zone.
Anxiety and chronic stress
Visas, contracts, rent, the low hum of living somewhere you could be asked to leave.
Depression and flatness
Especially the kind that is hard to name, because on paper the move worked.
Identity and belonging
Caught between where you're from and where you live, between who you were and whoever this is now.
Relationships and family
Including the strain of having moved together — or of having moved without them.
Homesickness and grief
For people, for a former life, for the version of yourself that existed before you left.
This is not a complete list. If you're struggling with something that isn't here, get in touch anyway. Therapy begins with you, not with a category — and it doesn't require you to have found the right word for it first.
How it works
Three steps, no referral
You choose your own therapist — nobody assigns one. You pick a time from their open hours, in your own zone. You meet by video call, from home. No referral, no insurance paperwork, no French or Dutch required.
About Wefeel
What Wefeel is — and what it isn't
Wefeel is a place to find a therapist and arrange to meet them online. We verify that every therapist listed here is qualified to practise, and we give them a place to be found.
We are not a clinic and we are not a party to your therapy. The session is between you and your therapist, and it belongs to the two of you. What is said in it stays there.
Wefeel is also not a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger, the numbers below will reach someone right now.
If you need help right now
Wefeel is not a crisis service
If you are thinking about ending your life, or you are afraid of what you might do, please don't wait for an appointment. Emergency services answer at any hour, free of charge, and in English.

Common questions
Do I need a referral or Belgian insurance?
No. You arrange the session directly with the therapist. Nothing goes through an insurer, and there is no referral to obtain first.
Do I need to speak French or Dutch?
No — that is the point. Sessions are in English, and so is everything on this site.
I've been on a waiting list for months. Can I use this while I wait?
Yes, and many people do. Nothing here replaces treatment you're already receiving, and nothing here obliges you to give up a place you've waited for.
My therapist isn't in Belgium. Does that matter?
Sessions are online, so location matters less than fit. Each therapist's profile shows where they are qualified to practise. If it matters for your situation, ask them before you book — they will tell you.
Is it confidential?
Yes. What you say to your therapist stays between the two of you, subject to the same legal and professional limits that apply wherever your therapist practises.
