Talking Distance

Talking Distance is an online therapy platform connecting individuals and couples with qualified psychotherapists and counsellors via video or phone, specifically designed for English-speaking clients who want to access professional mental health support flexibly — from anywhere in Germany.

The name reflects a core premise: that distance need not be a barrier to quality therapeutic support. For those spread across Germany — not only in major cities but in smaller towns and rural areas where English-speaking therapists are virtually impossible to find locally — online therapy removes the geographical constraint and makes professional mental health support genuinely accessible.

The platform matches clients with therapists whose background, approach, and expertise align with their presenting concerns and preferences. Therapists on the platform have specific experience working with internationally mobile individuals, expats, and those experiencing cross-cultural adjustment challenges.

Sessions are booked and conducted digitally, with flexible scheduling that accommodates the varied working hours and time zones of an internationally-minded client base. For people who have been unable to access appropriate mental health support due to geography, language, or logistics, Talking Distance provides a practical and effective solution.
