Seattle has been at the forefront of mental health awareness and innovation. We help behavioral health providers deliver compassionate care with technology that supports rather than hinders the therapeutic relationship.
The Behavioral Health Technology Challenge
Mental health providers have unique needs that generic healthcare software doesn't address—longer session times, narrative documentation, strict confidentiality rules, and the importance of therapeutic engagement.
