Practitioner matching, grounded in research

The hardest part of therapy is finding the right person.

Connection is therapeutic. Archimie brings you 90% there, and your instinct does the rest.

Built by a clinical therapist, on peer-reviewed research on the therapeutic alliance.

If you're looking for a practitioner

Find someone who fits — not just someone available.

We'll be in touch as spots open.

If you're a practitioner in France

Work with clients who've been looking for you.

Why this is different

The therapeutic alliance is the #1 predictor of therapy outcome.

Decades of meta-analyses converge on one finding: the bond between client and practitioner matters more than modality, credentials, or years of training. Most tools hand the work back to you — filters, bios, guesswork. Archimie starts from what actually forms chemistry between two people.

How it works

No browsing. Just a considered match.

  1. 01

    You tell us what matters.

    A short questionnaire on how you relate, what you're working through, and what kind of person helps you think.

  2. 02

    We match, you meet.

    Three practitioners, each with a note on why. A free audio intro call before you commit to a paid session.

What we match on

The keys to a bond.

Drawn from decades of therapeutic alliance research.

Therapeutic goals

Alignment between what you want to work on and a practitioner's areas of specialisation.

Attachment & relational patterns

How your relational style pairs with a practitioner's predicts bond strength — more than either style alone.

Communication style

Language matching between client and practitioner is an emerging signal of early alliance.

Identity & intersectionality

Shared lived experience changes the therapeutic encounter and plays a role in cultivating connection.

Early signals

What people are telling us

Instead of the strain of seeking somebody out yourself — which is what's overwhelming to me, like where do I even start? — this is an incredible tool to start, for someone like me especially.
From a client new to therapy
It feels like a very safe initiative: your information's safe. your needs are safe. the therapists on the other side will be safe to interact with… it just makes you feel safe.
From a client during testing
Building my Complete Profile made me feel the platform actually cares about how I work — not just my keywords.
