Therapist Simulator

Therapist Simulator is a simulation game in which you work as a psychiatrist, meeting patients with different personalities and helping them through mental health struggles. You ask questions, listen, choose how to respond and make difficult decisions that affect each patient’s emotional state, trust and progress, as well as your own well-being.

Patient sessions

Each patient can attend up to five sessions. At the end of each one, your evaluation determines whether they agree to return; a low enough score may lead them to leave therapy before completing the process. Your dialogue choices shape both the session and the wider story, and a wrong question or dismissive response can damage a patient’s trust and treatment.

At the end of certain sessions, you may be able to recommend medication. Appropriate advice earns extra points and accelerates a patient’s recovery, while medication that helps one patient may be dangerous for another. Accurate assessments can also reveal hidden stories and unlock special dialogue.

Patient stories

Every patient has a distinct background, with traumas, anxieties, joys and fears to uncover. Some conceal past traumas, while others weave truths subtly into their accounts. Careful listening and asking the right questions at the right time help you understand their stories.

Your well-being and office

Challenging cases, poor session outcomes and overwhelming stress can affect your mental health. Your success depends both on your patients’ improvement and on maintaining your own stability; neglecting your mental health can lead to game over. You can decorate your office to make it more pleasant and improve your mood, with each decorative item having a positive effect on your emotional state.

Records and progression

You can take notes and prepare a report at the end of each session to track a patient’s progress and better understand their story. Successful sessions and wise decisions earn points that let you level up, unlocking abilities such as highlighting specific choices or extending session duration.
