Quick summary: Psychreg has been ranked the number one mental health blog in the UK for the second consecutive year, according to Vuelio’s latest rankings published in May 2026. The platform, founded by Dennis Relojo-Howell, was recognised for making psychology and mental health research accessible to a broad readership without sacrificing rigour or credibility. The ranking reflects growing public appetite for reliable, evidence-informed mental health content and signals the increasing influence of independent digital platforms in shaping how people engage with psychological well-being.
Psychreg has retained its position as the top mental health blog in the UK according to the latest rankings published by Vuelio, the media intelligence platform. The ranking, updated on 13th May 2026, places Psychreg ahead of nine other prominent mental health blogs, marking the second consecutive year the publication has held the top spot.
Vuelio uses a proprietary algorithm to determine its rankings, drawing on topic-related content from blogs registered on its system. The rankings are compiled with input from a research team that actively monitors the mental health blogging landscape across the UK.
In its assessment, Vuelio described Psychreg as a “multi-award-winning global resource” and a “comprehensive nexus for psychology, wellness, and neurobiology”. The platform was recognised for its ability to bridge academic research with practical lifestyle content, covering topics such as the impact of digital hoarding on memory, brain imaging in PTSD, and the therapeutic applications of virtual reality.
Founded in 2014 by Dennis Relojo-Howell, Psychreg began as a personal project before growing into one of the most widely read psychology and mental health platforms in the English-speaking world. The publication covers a broad range of subjects, including clinical psychology, mental well-being, neuroscience, and education, and hosts the peer-reviewed Psychreg Journal of Psychology.
Dennis Relojo-Howell, managing director of Psychreg, said: “Retaining the top position for a second year is a reflection of the work our contributors, editorial team, and community have put in over the years. Psychreg was never built to be the loudest voice in the room. It was built to be a reliable one. We cover psychology and mental health with rigour and accessibility in mind, and it is encouraging to see that resonating with readers and being recognised by organisations like Vuelio.”
The Vuelio rankings also noted the diversity and quality of other blogs in the top ten. Sarah Bailey’s Life in a Break Down held second place, while Thoughts on Life and Love, run by BABCP-accredited CBT therapist Mandy Kloppers, moved up to third. The Mental Elf, known for its evidence-based summaries of psychiatric research, came in at fourth.
Other entries in the top ten included Unwanted Life, Sanity Daily, Be Ur Own Light by Eleanor Segall Mandelstam, the YoungMinds Blog, Open Journal by Mike Douglas, and Special Needs Jungle, which made its debut in the rankings this year.
The recognition comes as Psychreg continues to expand its editorial output and international reach. The publication has been growing its readership among Norwegian audiences as part of a broader effort to extend its influence beyond the UK. It also organises the International Conference on Psychology, Counselling and Education (ICPCE), with the 2026 edition scheduled to take place in Bacau, Romania, in September.
