About Charlie Health

“Finding the right mental health treatment as a teenager changed the trajectory of my life forever.”

My own personal experience with serious mental health issues ignited my lifelong commitment to making high-quality care accessible to young people who are profoundly struggling.

By delivering Charlie Health’s treatment programs virtually, we’re bringing evidence-based solutions to those who would otherwise be falling through the cracks. Our outcomes demonstrate that, with the right treatment, healing is possible for everyone.

“Rather than continuing to search for a solution, we decided to create it.”

As a clinician who once grappled with mental health and substance use during my teen years, I was frustrated by the lack of quality treatment options available for my clients facing similar struggles.

Many individuals with serious mental health and substance use issues find themselves cycling in and out of emergency rooms, hopeless and uncertain about where to turn. Rather than continuing to search for a solution, we decided to create it.

Through our innovative treatment model, we analyze hundreds of thousands of data points to predict successful outcomes, tailor treatment plans, and maximize treatment effectiveness.

This is how we’re able to harness the power of connection. Ensuring that our clients are receiving treatment alongside people dealing with similar issues reinforces the fact that they’re not alone. We know that connection is the antidote to all human suffering – and that’s why Charlie Health works.

“Our model is going to end suicide and change mental health treatment for the better.”

Before starting Charlie Health, I was most frustrated by the community problem in mental health. We know that group is the gold standard treatment, but there are virtually zero options that are accessible.

You can find 10,000 glassblowers on Facebook and join a group to talk about glassblowing; that’s not the case for people struggling with their mental health. This model didn’t make sense to me – and it still doesn’t make sense – for the millions of people with serious mental health issues like suicidal ideation or trauma.

At Charlie Health, we bring people together because we know that they’ll get better faster when they feel seen and heard. Our groups are working much better than any other kind of traditional treatment. And they just happen to be available to everyone, at any time.

Then you add in all the amazing clinicians we hire – the best of the best from around the country – along with the software we’ve developed for them and our clients, which makes treatment easily accessible and continually improving in quality. Our model is going to end suicide and change mental health treatment for the better.
