About Heelar

Creating change within

We envision a world where authenticity is celebrated, vulnerability is embraced, and people are free to speak their truth without fear.

Why we're building Heelar

Finding the right help shouldn't depend on luck

The world of wellbeing is loud. Anonymous coaches, certificates earned over a weekend, and feeds designed to keep you scrolling long after they stopped helping.

Meanwhile the people who do this work well, the breathwork teachers, sound healers, coaches and astrologers who have spent years learning their craft, are left chasing followers just to be found.

Heelar is a home for both. A calm place where you can meet someone you trust, and where practitioners can hold their work with the care it deserves.

We're opening with a founding circle of practitioners, and we're building it with them.

What we believe

Four things we won't trade away

01

People before algorithms

Heelar exists to help you find a person who can help. Where we use technology, it points you toward people, never away from them, and it always says what it is.

02

Calm by design

No streaks, no scores, no engagement targets. Discover ends on purpose and Today is not a feed. We'd rather you felt better and closed the app.

03

Trust you can check

A person reviews every practitioner and their certificates. Insurance is verified before paid or in-person work. Certificates you earn with us can be checked by anyone.

04

Fair to practitioners

Practitioners keep 85% of every booking and are paid every week. We never sell their data or their audience.

The whole of you

Healing is a verb. Sometimes the verb is to be.

Some days it's something you do, with people who know the way. Other days it's allowing yourself simply to be. Heelar holds both in four pillars, because most of us need more than one door.
