Average GGZ waiting time in the Netherlands: NZa data October 2025, analysis by MIND/Radar (February 2026)

"Not because people don't try. Because the system can't keep up."

At Gedachten Makelaar it takes 5 minutes.

No waiting list. No intake three months later. Just a conversation, with a real coach, therapist or music therapist.

On average, people wait 24 weeks for mental healthcare, 32 weeks for some conditions. For many it takes months, sometimes longer, and about half wait beyond the official norm. Some do not fit anywhere and are turned away or passed on. And not everyone can afford to start elsewhere in the meantime.

With this fund we cover access for those who cannot. Every contribution goes directly to someone who needs it.

A team member reads every application personally. No algorithm. Eligible applicants receive conversation minutes on their account.

Others are placed on the waiting list.

03

Credits appear on their account. They choose their own coach, book their own moment. No barrier anymore.

Anonymously if they prefer.
