We stand at the precipice of an unprecedented mental health crisis.

More individuals are experiencing mental health issues than ever before.

A disturbing trend that has seen a significant rise during the difficult COVID years.

More than half of adults facing mental health issues didn’t receive treatment.

Mostly due to:
- Mental health stigma
- Service limitations
- Prohibitive cost

Among those who received treatment, fewer than a third reported seeing results.

Which usually come after a long period of trial and error and severe side-effects.

To overcome this challenge, we need to rethink our approach.
