The list on this page is short, and it may not hold anyone who suits you. Two things below still apply. One is who is entitled to register as a therapist in this country. The other is what shapes the cost of a session here.
Services at Paraguay's public health establishments are free by law. Ley N.o 5099/2013 sets that out. The health ministry states that no staff member may ask for payment. The ban applies to appointments, queues, surgery and any other service in the public network.
The ministry also supplies the listed essential medicines at no charge. Private practice sits under Ley N.o 6293/2019, which sets no tariff for psychologists. Its only fee rule forbids splitting a fee with a colleague.
The register of psychologists is held by the health ministry, not a professional college.

Registration and licensing
Licensing arrangements for therapy differ a great deal from one country to the next, and for Paraguay TherapyRoute cannot point you to a national register to check a practitioner against. Ask a practitioner what training they completed, what title they use, and whether they hold a registration anywhere, then ask to see it.

Real choice. Authentic, independent, clinician-led care.
TherapyRoute is a clinician-led directory that champions independent practitioners who answer to you and their professional ethics. We don't take commissions, sell your data, or assign therapists by algorithm. You browse, compare, and choose.
