About us

One team. One mission. One platform.

Connecta wasn't designed on a drawing board. It's the result of years of close collaboration with the people it was built for: counselors and advice seekers in social services and healthcare.

A little better every month: to bring help even more easily to those who need it most, and to support counselors in focusing on what matters, helping people. That's what drives us at Connecta.

Our mission: making online counseling accessible to everyone.

We enable social and healthcare organisations to offer their counseling at any time, securely, to everyone who needs it. Three principles guide us: simplicity for everyone involved, the highest security and data protection standards, and genuine partnership with our customers.

For me personally, Connecta is a way to live our values – to create a mindful and reliable togetherness and mutual care.
