Founded in 2021 and headquartered in Lagos, Mytherapist.ng is the digital mental health platform built for Africa. The company is dismantling the cost, stigma, and access barriers that keep millions of Nigerians from getting the care they need by pairing them with licensed therapists for secure video, audio, and chat sessions. Beyond direct-to-consumer therapy, Mytherapist.ng works with HMOs, corporates, universities, and community partners to embed mental healthcare into existing benefits, campus services, and outreach programmes — making therapy a normal, expected part of daily life for the next generation of Africans.
