The Spanish public broadcaster will produce Terapia Abierta, the local version of the format created by Twenty Twenty and distributed by Warner Bros. International Television Production.
Warner Bros. International Television Production (WBITVP) announced that Spain has become the second international territory to adapt the mental health format Inside Therapy. The local version, titled Terapia Abierta, is being produced by WBITVP Spain for public broadcaster RTVE. The series is set to premiere in Spain later this year.
The format will open the doors of Spanish television to real therapy sessions for the first time, following mental health experts as they support individuals facing personal challenges and everyday situations.
Filmed under strict clinical supervision and ethical protocols, the series will explore real-life stories related to anxiety, grief, trauma, relationships, and emotional growth.
Created by Twenty Twenty, a WBITVP company, Inside Therapy originally aired on BBC One in the UK and was also adapted by France 2 in 2025. Both the British and French versions received positive critical and audience responses for their honest and empathetic portrayal of mental health.
According to the producers, Terapia Abierta will have a strong educational and social awareness component, aiming to normalize conversations around therapy and emotional well-being.
“The demand for mental health treatment is growing globally, and we are proud that Inside Therapy continues to open the door for more people to understand and experience what happens in therapy sessions,” said Andrew Zein, EVP Creative Format Development and Sales at WBITVP.
“The format is explicitly designed to give viewers maximum access with minimum interference for participants in these real conversations. We are delighted that RTVE has become the third broadcaster to embrace the importance of making this kind of content available,” he added.
