For therapists

You became a therapist to provide care. Not to compete for it.

See client requests that fit your practice, and reach out only when you can genuinely help.

Why it exists

You’re a professional. The first step should treat you like one.

The training

Years of education and supervised practice. Then continuing education every year, workshops, paid supervision, insurance, and the ethical and practice standards that keep you in good standing with your College — the work of a regulated health professional.
What it started to look like

Somewhere along the way, providing care started to look like something else: paying to rank, keeping bios current on several sites, learning to market — while care became harder to reach for everyone who needs it.
What we changed

TheraLume puts the clinical work first. People say what’s going on in their own words. You read it, and reach out where your training can genuinely help. Your expertise is what they meet.

What you leave behind

Less noise. More of the work you trained for.

Instead of:Paying to rank

Reaching out

There’s no list to climb. Clients never browse a list of therapists — you decide who to introduce yourself to.

Instead of:Becoming a marketer

Practising as a clinician

No posting schedule, no SEO, no algorithm to please. Your clinical judgment does the work.

Instead of:Directory roulette

Reading the person first

You see what’s going on, in their own words, before deciding whether you’re a fit. They choose you for how you’d help — not a headshot or a ranking.

Instead of:A bio on every site

One profile, one plan

Your profile and credentials are reviewed once. Every therapist here is verified.

Instead of:“Do you have openings?” emails

Context first

People have already shared what’s going on, so your first hello can be about them.

Instead of:A blank first message

A prompt to start

Sentence prompts help you begin. Your words fill in the rest.

A letter from our founder

Dear colleague,

Most of us didn’t become therapists to have a job. We became therapists to help people — to provide real care and real treatment at a time when more people are struggling, and fewer can reach the help they need.

That commitment doesn’t end at graduation. Often six or more years of education. Continuing education every year. Workshops and trainings we pay for ourselves. Paid supervision. Insurance, ethics and practice standards, all so we stay in good standing with the College and worthy of the trust people place in us. We are regulated health professionals.

And yet, somewhere along the way, providing care started to look different. To reach the people we’re trained to help, we were asked to rank, to pay for visibility, to keep profiles current on site after site, to become marketers. The guardrails grew, and care became less accessible — for the people who need it, and for the professionals who provide it.

I built TheraLume to bring the first step back to the care itself. People say what’s going on in their own words. You read it with the judgment you’ve spent years earning. Where you can genuinely help, you reach out, and they decide whether to begin.

When someone reaches out for help, someone should answer. I believe that someone should be a professional who is ready for them.

With gratitude,

Sashaun Clarke

Founder — Registered Psychotherapist

Read the person. Then say hello.

Your introduction

Prompt: Reflect a preference

You mentioned wanting someone practical. I can offer a structured approach — we’d map what’s driving it, then try one thing that week.

The prompt gives you a start. The highlighted words are yours.

Practice Workspace

One workspace for your team: therapist seats, a shared introduction allowance and your locations.

Prices are in Canadian dollars, before any applicable tax. Starter, Growth and Professional each cover one clinician; on those plans, annual billing is ten monthly payments for twelve months. An introduction is your first message to someone. It opens the door; it doesn’t promise a reply or an appointment.

Straight answers

Before you sign up.

Is TheraLume a directory?: No. Clients never browse therapists. People who choose to share what’s going on become requests you can review, and you decide who to introduce yourself to.
What uses an introduction?: Your first message to someone. Reviewing eligible requests and messaging in a conversation they accepted don’t use another one.
What if they decline?: That’s their answer, and the introduction is used. Introduce yourself where you can genuinely help.
Will an introduction get me a client?: Not necessarily. It’s a professional hello. The person decides whether to connect.
Who can join?: The first release is for eligible CRPO registrants practising in Ontario, including supervised registrants after the required checks. Every profile is reviewed before you can introduce yourself.

The next step

When someone reaches out for help, someone should answer.
