English-speaking therapists in Paris

Therapy in English, without minding your accent

No referral, no waiting list, no doing this in French.

Paris quietly assesses your French all day long — which makes it the last place you want to be vulnerable and imprecise in it.

The Eiffel Tower over the Seine — English-speaking therapy in Paris

Why it matters here

No place to be managing an accent

Paris keeps a gentle, constant tab on your French, and therapy is exactly where you don't want to be performing a language on top of everything else. The city has a big international population and a shortage of English-speaking therapists to match — the good ones book out. Online, you choose from everyone working in English and meet from home, no subjunctive 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.

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

Choose your therapist, pick a time in your own zone, meet by video from home. No referral, no French required.

Therapy is no place to worry about grammar

You should be able to say the hard thing badly and still be understood. That's easier in your own language.
