Our take
With roughly 50 million adults suffering from mental illness in the United States, a new generation of startups are aiming to help people ease conditions like depression, grief, anxiety, and stress, by increasing access to mental health care.
Octave is one of these companies, classing itself as a national behavioral health practice. It offers therapy, coaching, and group classes both virtually and through in-person sessions, with virtual services available in a number of US states. And because of its strong relationship with insurance providers, 96% of Octave clients use insurance, making mental health care more accessible and affordable for a wider range of individuals.
In just a short time, Octave has experienced impressive growth, tripling the number of clients it serves by transitioning its in-person offerings online and launching an exclusive virtual therapy and coaching practice. This continued success is driven by strategic partnerships and an expanding network, with a clear focus on growth.
