✨ For Students

Affordable therapy for Nigerian students who are carrying a lot.

University life in Nigeria is pressure on repeat — deadlines, money that finishes early, hostel stress, and family expectations. You deserve a safe place to talk without judgment.

Mytherapist.ng gives verified Nigerian students discounted access to licensed therapists, directly from their phone.

What "affordable" means

Designed for a student budget.

With the student discount, therapy costs less than what many students spend on data, transport, or food in a week.

It is built to fit into your budget, not compete with it.

What you can book

Support that fits your needs.

I was skeptical at first, but my therapist really understands the stress of being a Nigerian student. The discount made it possible for me to actually afford help.

Why this matters

Delaying help makes things heavier.

😓

Stress becomes burnout

Small struggles grow when you push them away.

📉

Anxiety affects grades

It gets harder to focus, submit, and show up.

😔

Motivation drops

Everything begins to feel heavier than it should.

This program removes the cost barrier, so you can get support early, consistently, and privately. Your mental health affects your grades, relationships, and future decisions — ignoring it usually costs more in the long run.

Private and confidential

Your privacy is protected.

No lecturer sees this. No parent is notified. No fellowship leader, roommate, or coursemate knows. Your sessions are private, your information stays secure, and your student status is only used to verify your discount.
