Delivering better behavioral health care
Today’s surging demand for behavioral health services makes it more crucial than ever to connect employees quickly with the right help. Behavioral Health Solutions makes it easier for employees to find care that's right for them.
We guide people to personalized care that fits their unique needs and preferences, across a full range of evidence-based mental health support options. Developed by our clinical experts using insights from all aspects of health care, it’s a comprehensive solution that takes the guesswork out of finding care.
An expanded foundation for care
Access isn’t only about having a big network
It's about going beyond traditional network approaches and expanding care options. Our solutions support members no matter their level of need, with a range of support options, from self-help tools, 24/7 in-the-moment support, and coaching for adults and youth.
We also offer in-person therapy and facility-based care to ensure that your employees have access to the broadest range of support that's right for their unique needs.

Guiding adults, youth and caregivers to the right care
To guide employees to the care they need, we provide an easy-to-navigate, highly personalized and empathetic experience across multiple channels, including online and live support.
Members who have access to our employee assistance program, Emotional Wellbeing Solutions, benefit from integrated guidance and services, making it easier than ever for them to access support across the continuum of care.

Quality is at the center of everything we do
From using human-centered design to building new solutions in partnership with our staff of clinical experts, to piloting and testing measurement-based programs, we're committed to advancing access to quality behavioral health care.
Our solutions empower you to cultivate a healthier, more engaged workforce and help reduce overall costs for employees and plan sponsors.

Understanding the language of health is key to helping people
If people can't understand health information, they can't make appropriate health decisions and that means they can't take appropriate action to help themselves.
That’s why it’s important for us to make it easier for people to learn about different types of behavioral care, providers, and what to expect from treatment so they can make informed decisions.

Access isn’t only about having a big network
It's about going beyond traditional network approaches and expanding care options. Our solutions support members no matter their level of need, with a range of support options, from self-help tools, 24/7 in-the-moment support, and coaching for adults and youth.
We also offer in-person therapy and facility-based care to ensure that your employees have access to the broadest range of support that's right for their unique needs.

It's nice to have an environment like this where you have both psychiatry and counseling psychologists working together to push the treatment and the progress and the outcomes.
