A fictional network for real providers
Have something real to say about being human right now?
Zimbug TV is a fictional television network with one real purpose: letting people see who you actually are before they reach out. Instead of the usual therapy-speak, each episode turns a genre — a newscast, an appraisal show, a weather report — into a creative expression of your approach, your worldview, your personality. Episodes air on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, where your future clients already scroll, and every one links straight back to your website.

"Local Therapist Refuses to Pretend Everything Is Fine"
THE NETWORK'S ON-AIR STANCE
Serious chyrons. Absurd tickers. A field interview with a provider who won't pretend.
A provider appraises your Hypervigilance, circa 1998. Still functional. Heavily used.
Today's forecast, mapped gently. The tender, cinematic side of the network.
An ongoing argument, presented with evidence.
He's exhausting. We gave him a desk anyway.
Experimental broadcasts for when the old story ends and the new one hasn't started.
A real therapist, psychiatrist, PMHNP, or practice with an actual point of view — revealed through their episode, linked directly to their website.
Licensed states listed plainly. No rankings, no reviews, no matching algorithm. Just recognition.
The right viewers recognize themselves in your worldview and reach out. The rest keep scrolling. Both outcomes are correct.
The founding season features a small, invited group of providers with genuinely distinctive perspectives. The network is selective on purpose.
The story stays in character; the facts stay visible. Every feature states, outside the fiction, that a video is not a clinical match, a diagnosis, or advice — it's a first impression.
Viewers are pointed to your website and told to ask you directly about fit, availability, cost, and licensure. Your licensed states appear on every feature, with a note to confirm current availability and telehealth eligibility with you. Paid participation is always disclosed.
Episodes that touch heavy ground carry crisis information: in the US, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), or call 911 in an emergency. Zimbug TV is entertainment, not emergency care.
A limited number of features, invitation-only, in different genres. You approve the facts; the story does the rest.
