Individual Therapy in Peru, Without the 20-Week Wait or Trip to Lima.

Yes\! You can cancel your subscription at any time and restart when you're ready to return. There's no penalty for pausing, and you can reactivate your account at anytime. When you return, we'll work to match you with your previous therapist if they're available, or find you a new therapist if needed. Many clients take breaks between therapy periods as they practice new skills or experience life changes, then return when they need additional support. Your account remains in our system, making it easy to resume services whenever it's right for you.

No, your online therapy sessions are completely private. The video connection is encrypted end-to-end, meaning only you and your therapist can see and hear the session. Grouport staff don't have access to view your sessions, and the content isn't recorded or monitored. For your privacy, we recommend attending sessions from a private location where you won't be overheard or interrupted. If you live with family or roommates, consider using headphones and choosing times when you have privacy. You're always in control of your camera and microphone and can turn them off if needed.

Your personal information is stored securely in HIPAA-compliant systems with strict access controls. Only your therapist and necessary administrative staff can access your records, and all access is logged for security. We never sell, share, or use your information for marketing purposes. Your therapy records are maintained according to state and federal regulations. You have the right to request copies of your records at any time, and you can review our detailed privacy policy for complete information about how we handle your data.

Yes, therapy can definitely help you address self-esteem challenges. Your therapist will help you identify where the low self esteem is coming from and what are the right approaches whether cognitive, behavioral or psychodynamic in nature to address these recurring feelings that keep on holding you back. Online therapy will help you build genuine confidence over time. It will likely require deep work on your beliefs about yourself and isn’t a simple quick fix. You’ll learn how to identify these unhealthy thought patterns and challenge negative self-talk, so that you can have a healthier perspective on things. Most people notice improvement in their self-esteem within 3-6 months of consistent therapy.

This is normal, and many people worry about being judged at first. This fear is likely holding you back and may be even a barrier for you seeking therapy in the first place. Therapists are specifically trained to be non-judgemental and they hear about all kinds of challenges all day long. So rest assured that any adept therapist will meet you with compassion and empathy. You don’t have to open up about everything right away, but you will go at your own pace and build trust over time. Being vulnerable in therapy is one of the many benefits that leads to sustained progress over time rather than keeping everything bottled up, so it's important to have someone you can trust to speak with and that they can provide professional guidance to you to help navigate all kinds of challenging situations.

Yes, many people continue therapy as part of their wellness routine. You don’t just stop going to the gym after you see results, but it's typically about how can you maintain the consistency to see sustained results over time. Many people continue with ongoing support to prevent relapse and work on personal growth, or to manage chronic conditions. So you can continue therapy for as long as you're benefiting and the duration at which you partake in therapy is totally a personal decision. Your therapy or treatment plan can likely change over time, and the topics that you're focusing on can certainly be different at different junctures. So trust what’s best for you, and if you want your therapist to weigh in on whether you should continue, stop, or do something different they can absolutely be a sounding board to discuss that through with you and help you make an informed decision.

Grouport's individual therapy at an average of $103/session ($448/month) is already 50-60% below typical individual therapy costs of $150-250/session. Additional affordability options include using HSA/FSA funds for 20-30% tax savings, submitting superbills to insurance for 50-80% reimbursement if you have out-of-network benefits, month-to-month billing with no long-term contracts allows you to attend when finances permit and pause when needed. If you pay quarterly or biannually, that comes with additional savings of 10% or 15% off respectively. Additionally, you can also do bi-weekly sessions for half the cost at $224/month. We also offer online group therapy at an average of $32/session which provides evidence-based treatment at the lowest cost, and our DBT self-guided program offers a one-time payment for lifetime access. We're committed to making quality care accessible. Contact us to discuss options that fit your budget.

Work culture varies by country. Some countries have intense work demands, limited worker protections, or expectations that harm mental health. Whether you're dealing with burnout, toxic workplace, career pressure, or unemployment stress, therapy addresses work-related mental health impacts regardless of where you live.

Financial stress affects mental health everywhere. Therapy helps you cope with the anxiety and depression that come with economic insecurity. If money is tight, group therapy costs less than individual therapy so that might be a great way to affordably access therapy. Through our platform, we want therapy to be accessible.

Monthly rate stays the same. Some clients decrease frequency as they stabilize (weekly to biweekly), which reduces overall monthly cost. But the per-session rate doesn't typically decrease for being a long-term client. If you are paying quarterly or biannually, then there are discounts you get. You might need less intensive therapy as you improve, which will naturally reduce cost.

Yes. Grouport runs weekly one-on-one video sessions with licensed therapists in English, which suits expats, international-school families in San Isidro or Miraflores, remote workers in Barranco, and Peruvians who studied or lived abroad and prefer processing in English. Peru sits in PET (UTC-5), aligned year-round with US Eastern time, so evening sessions land at comfortable Lima hours. You can start right away at $103 per session on average, billed at $448 per month, on a HIPAA-secure platform, without hunting for a bilingual clinician locally.

More than 70 percent of Peru's psychiatrists practice in Lima, leaving highland and Amazonian provinces with almost no specialist coverage and forcing long trips to the coast. Grouport removes that travel entirely. From Puno, Iquitos, Cusco, Huancayo, or a rural chacra, you join weekly one-on-one video sessions led by licensed therapists over any stable internet connection. Sessions start right away at $103 per session on average, billed at $448 per month, on a HIPAA-secure platform, bypassing the 20-week public wait and the Lima-centric supply bottleneck.
