What We Do

Koa Health provides evidence-based mental health care that is as personal as an individual’s experience and comprehensive to manage at the population level. We’re closing the supply-demand gap, providing all-in-one mental health care, from digital-first, self-guided care, to clinical therapy.

One of the most challenging aspects of healthcare is the navigation of the complex ecosystem. For employers, we eliminate the need for multiple vendors by covering lifestyle, prevention and therapy within one unified solution - delivering personalized individual mental health support that maximizes impact across the workforce population. For the employee, we guide them through their personalized mental health care along a personal curated journey. Our clinical rigor and evidence based practices means your workforce gets the absolute best mental health care.

From prevention, to the therapy, to maintenance, Koa Health goes beyond the session, because mental health care is more than just therapy
