Our Mission
Finding the right therapist is one of the most important decisions a person can make — and one of the hardest. GooderTherapy exists to make that search better.
We're solely focused on improving the experience of seeking mental health counseling, by giving real clients a safe place to share what it's actually like to work with a therapist.
How we protect reviewers
Your words are never published as-is
Every review is processed by AI before it goes live. Your raw text is transformed into a neutral, third-person summary. Personal details, session specifics, and anything that could identify you are removed. What gets published is an honest reflection of your experience — not a transcript of it.
Your email is never shared or stored in plain text
We ask for your email only to verify that reviews come from real people, not bots. It's stored as a one-way cryptographic hash — meaning we can't read it, reverse it, or share it. It never appears publicly, and we'll never send you marketing email.
No account, no profile, no trail
You don't need an account to leave a review. Nothing ties your review to an identity. If you want to edit or delete your review later, we send a private link to your email — and that's the only record connecting you to what you wrote.
Every review is human-reviewed before going live
We manually review every submission before it's published. This protects therapists from bad-faith reviews and gives us a chance to catch anything the AI may have missed. No review goes live automatically.
Why this matters
Most people find therapists through insurance directories or word of mouth. Both are limited. Directories tell you credentials and availability. Word of mouth gives you one person's experience. Neither helps you understand what it's actually like to sit in that room.
Therapy is deeply personal. A therapist who's excellent for one person may be a poor fit for another. Communication style, therapeutic approach, and how they handle difficult moments matter enormously — and none of that shows up in a credential list.
We built GooderTherapy because people deserve better information when making one of the most important decisions of their mental health journey.
