Therapy in English, in a city rebuilt for the new
No referral, no waiting list, no doing this in Dutch.
Rotterdam is Holland's most international port, full of people who arrived recently and work entirely in English.

Why it matters here
A working city of new arrivals
Rotterdam is a port and a magnet for people who came for a job and stayed — internationals whose Dutch is functional at best. The city's pragmatism doesn't extend to easily finding an English-speaking therapist locally. Online, you choose from everyone working in English and meet from home, around a working day.
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 doorverwijzing
You read the profiles and choose your own therapist — nobody assigns one, and nothing goes through your huisarts. You pick a time from the hours they have open, in your own time zone. And you meet by video call, from home. No referral, no insurance paperwork, no Dutch required.
You don't need a diagnosis to start
Most people begin with no name for what's wrong. Finding out is part of the work.
Reading
Written by the therapists themselves
Articles about anxiety, sleep, grief, burnout and the rest of it — written by the people you can book a session with.
If you need help right now
Wefeel is not a crisis service
If you are thinking about ending your life, or you're 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
Are the therapists in Rotterdam?
Some are, many aren't — irrelevant for an online session.
Do I need Dutch insurance?
No, you arrange directly.
Can I use this while I wait for a spot?
Yes, and many do.
Start in your own language
Read the profiles, take your time, and choose someone you can talk to properly. No zorgverzekering, no referral, and no Dutch required at any point.
