It takes more than telehealth to solve a mental health crisis

Mental health issues have a devastating impact on individuals, families, and society. Despite mental health spending reaching $225 billion in 2021 and an explosion of telehealth mental health platforms, the majority of people still struggle to find high-quality, affordable treatment in the US.

An inefficient system and a limited supply of mental health providers combine to drive up costs without improving results. It’s clear that we need a new approach to solve this crisis.

That’s why we founded Youper.

Digital mental health that delivers real outcomes

The groundwork of Youper is evidence-based interventions - treatments that have been studied and documented extensively and have been proven to be successful. Youper has been proven clinically effective at reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression by researchers at Stanford University.

What our patients are saying

Youper uses cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, but by asking questions and learning what works for you, it makes you feel at ease and supported. It cannot replace a real therapist, but it is undoubtedly an excellent place to start.

Stella

I’ve been struggling with depression and anxiety my whole life, and even more so since the pandemic. A friend recommended Youper, and I decided to give it a shot. Within two hours, I felt completely grounded and much more clear-minded.

Andrea

It’s not like talking to a real person, but it’s dang close. I’ve been in therapy before, and it sometimes feels very judgmental, but Youper gets rid of all that and saves the helpful knowledge and support. I love this app.
