In an era where burnout once masqueraded as ambition, Therapy Near Me is helping redefine what true success looks like—centred on healing, aligned growth, and forward-thinking innovation. As Australia’s fastest-growing mental health service, the company is not only scaling rapidly but also setting the pace for a new kind of health and technology ecosystem.

Led by Business Development Lead Alexander Amatus, an MBA-qualified strategist with a background in corporate leadership and finance, Therapy Near Me has evolved beyond a service provider into a national platform delivering accessible, personalised mental health care with bold ambitions.

“Mental health care can’t afford to be slow or generic anymore,” says Amatus. “It must be accessible, tech-integrated, and future-proofed. That’s the bar we’re setting.”

And that bar is high.

Currently delivering Telehealth psychology sessions, in-home therapy, and NDIS-aligned services across the country, Therapy Near Me has also built one of Australia’s largest free mental health article libraries—used by individuals, families, and support coordinators seeking trusted guidance on everything from anxiety to autism.

But it’s what comes next that’s truly transformative.

The company is preparing to launch psAIch, its in-house AI psychology assistant, designed to offer intelligent, emotionally responsive support 24/7. This innovation will be delivered via its upcoming mental health mobile app(currently in beta at therapynearme.com.au), giving users on-demand access to therapeutic reflections, self-guided tools, and emotional health check-ins—bridging the gap between sessions and providing real-time support.

What makes Therapy Near Me truly unique, however, is how deeply innovation is embedded not just in mental health care, but in sustainability. The company holds the patents behind AirVolt, a novel renewable energy system capable of converting kinetic and thermal energy into electricity using a dual-turbine mechanism. The AirVolt technology will offset the energy demands of psAIch and future digital services, ensuring the organisation remains both environmentally and socially responsible.

“It’s not just about scaling a business,” says Amatus. “It’s about building a company that reflects the future we want to live in—one where mental health support is intelligent, ever-present, and sustainable.”

By combining AI-powered therapy, human-led psychology, and zero-emissions energy, Therapy Near Me is positioned to become Australia’s largest and most innovative mental health provider.

This approach mirrors a larger cultural transformation. More professionals and entrepreneurs now recognise that true growth doesn’t come from hustle alone—it emerges from emotional alignment, resilience, and clarity.

“Mental fitness is now as important as strategy or capital,” Amatus explains. “You can’t lead a sustainable business without doing the inner work.”

And this belief is more than a philosophy—it’s a system. From multilingual therapy to clinician wellbeing protocols, from NDIS support coordination to clean tech infrastructure, Therapy Near Me is a company in alignment with its mission: to make healing not only accessible, but integrated into how we live and work.
