Four steps to your first session
Pleso Therapy matches you with a therapist who fits your needs.

Pleso Therapy matches you with a therapist who fits your needs.
Take a quiz, choose your therapist, meet online.
1. Take a short quiz. Answer a few questions about what's on your mind, what you'd like to change and what matters to you in a therapist. It takes about 5 minutes. We match you on what you need, not on who happens to be free, using matching technology we built in-house and keep confidential.
2. Get matched with a therapist. We suggest therapists who fit your needs. Each profile shows their qualifications, experience and a video introduction, and you choose the one you feel comfortable with.
3. Have your first session. Meet by video at a time that suits you, on our secure platform in your browser. There is nothing to install, and sessions are never recorded.
4. Keep going at your pace. Continue with single sessions, a bundle or a subscription. If the fit isn't right, you can switch therapist once for free.
What people say about Pleso Therapy
Daisy, 26
For me, it was important to find ‘my person’. At Pleso Therapy, I was quickly matched with a therapist I feel really comfortable talking to. It’s been great so far.
Sam, 24
I always felt tense, even when I was supposed to rest. But after a few sessions with my lovely therapist, it’s been easier for me to just relax.
Laura, 35
I’d had a therapist before who just wasn’t right for me. At Pleso Therapy, it was easy to switch, and now I’ve found someone I really click with.
Danny, 25
I always put my problems to the back of my mind, but it got to the stage where I just couldn’t do that anymore. With Pleso Therapy, I quickly got matched with a great therapist, and after just a few conversations, I felt relief.
Tom, 28
I used to feel stuck and would dread everything. My therapist showed me some really useful techniques and steps I could take, and now I’m moving forward without that constant sense of dread.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about getting started
About 5 minutes. You answer a few questions about what's on your mind, and we suggest therapists who fit your needs.
We match you with therapists whose experience fits what you're going through and what matters to you in a therapist. Our matching technology is our own: built in-house, improved with every match, and kept confidential. It isn't a public AI chatbot, and your answers stay on our platform. You always make the final choice.
Only about 10% pass our process. Each therapist is peer-interviewed by Therapy Leads, has a minimum of three years of post-qualification experience, is a member of a recognised UK professional body (for example BACP, UKCP, HCPC, COSRT, BABCP), and holds Enhanced DBS and professional indemnity insurance. Every therapist also takes part in supervision and periodic evaluations. We show qualifications and memberships on profiles, so you know who you are booking.
Online by video, on Pleso Therapy's own secure platform in your browser, so there is nothing to install. Sessions are never recorded, and we follow UK GDPR.
