Can I see an English-speaking therapist in Madrid?
Yes, online. Your therapist in Madrid meets you by video, always in English and fully bilingual, and no Spanish is needed to get started. If you would rather meet face to face, in-person sessions are available in Seville, Granada, Barcelona and Florence. Tell us what matters to you in a therapist when you write, and we will keep it in mind when matching you.
Madrid is huge and I still feel lonely. Is that normal?
Completely. Being surrounded by people does not make a new city feel like home, and feeling isolated is a common part of adjusting to life abroad. A therapist can help you build routines and connections at your own pace. More on this in our article on the first 30 days abroad.
Can I use my US insurance for therapy here?
We work with most American insurers that cover students overseas, including GeoBlue, CISI, International SOS, Aetna, Cigna and On Call, and we file the claims on your behalf. Add your provider to the form and we will help you check your coverage. Here is how US insurance works for therapy abroad, step by step.
Can I see a psychiatrist in English?
Yes, by video. Our psychiatrists provide evaluations, diagnosis and medication management, working alongside your psychologist so your care stays connected. If you already have a diagnosis or a prescription from home, mention it when you first contact us.
How do I fit therapy around a busy class schedule?
Online sessions make it easier: with no travel time, an appointment can sit between two classes or at the end of the day. Mention when you are usually free in the Additional details field of the form.
Who do I call in a mental health emergency?
Call 112 if anyone is in immediate danger; it is the free emergency number for all of Spain. When the situation is under control, get in touch with us for crisis intervention support and follow-up.
