Online therapy in Wellington

A therapist in Wellington, on your schedule

Read the profiles, pick a time, and meet online from home.

A compact capital where the constraint isn't distance so much as who has an opening.

The Wellington waterfront — online therapy available across the city

Why it matters here

Small city, small pool of appointments

Wellington is walkable, but a small city also means a small pool of local therapists, and if the fit is wrong there may not be an obvious second choice nearby. Online widens it well beyond the capital: you choose from every therapist working in your language, wherever they are, and meet from home.

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

  • Anxiety and constant low-level dread

    The worry that doesn't attach itself to anything in particular, and doesn't switch off when the day ends.

  • Depression and flatness

    Including the kind that is hard to justify, because on paper nothing is wrong.

  • Burnout and exhaustion

    When the job stopped being difficult and started being impossible, and you kept going anyway.

  • Grief

    After a death — but also after a marriage, a career, a friendship, or a version of yourself.

  • Relationships and family

    Including the arguments that are never really about what they appear to be about.

  • Loneliness

    You can be lonely in the town you grew up in, surrounded by people who have known you for thirty years.

This is not a complete list. If what you're carrying isn't on it, that changes nothing — therapy starts with you, not with a label.

How it works

Three steps

You read the profiles and choose your own therapist. You pick a time from the hours they have open, shown in your own time zone. And you meet by video call, from wherever you are. Each profile shows the fee up front.

The first step is smaller than it looks

You only have to pick someone and turn up.
