An active user of Sanvello, Raisman will help reach millions of
people worldwide who can benefit from taking action to improve
their mental health. She’ll also work closely with the Sanvello
team to build out new services and offerings for global app users,
informed by her own personal experience.
“Working with a professional therapist and building in self-care
practices to my everyday routine have really helped me through some
very tough times,” says Raisman. “I want to help others create
space to focus on their own mental health, and Sanvello is a great
place to start. There’s no one-size-fits-all for mental health, but
with so many types of support within Sanvello, you can choose the
path that feels right to you. Together, we want to encourage
help-seeking behavior and improve the mental health care experience
so more people around the world can take small steps to feel
better.”
The partnership, and launch of in-app coaching and therapy
services comes at a critical time: The impact of the COVID-19
pandemic has more people than ever in need of quality mental health
care. More than one-third of American adults are experiencing
symptoms of an anxiety disorder, and one-quarter are experiencing
symptoms of a depressive disorder, according to CDC survey data —
up more than 250% from a year ago.
"We’re seeing thousands of people come to Sanvello every day
seeking help for stress, anxiety and depression. People are
overwhelmed, and they’re choosing Sanvello as their first stop to
find better mental health," says Brian Sauer, chief executive
officer of Sanvello. “With a new academic year upon us adding new
stressors, we’re expecting the need to only increase. Over
three-quarters of our users with stress, anxiety and depression
report feeling better within just 60 days. We are eager to partner
with Aly to continue to bring the best digital mental health
support we can to people around the world.”
The additional services rounds out the company’s care service
offering, making Sanvello Health the nation’s first and only
digital behavioral health care provider with a completely seamless
and integrated patient experience, combining the power of content
and care to serve a broad population across multiple diagnoses such
as anxiety, depression and trauma-related conditions.
The full Sanvello patient experience now includes:
- Therapy services available in 10 states: California, Colorado,
Florida, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Rhode
Island, Texas, and Washington. More states will be added by
year-end, with these services serving 80% of the U.S. population.
