May is Mental Health Awareness Month — a time to focus on the importance of mental well-being and the people working tirelessly behind the scenes to support it. It’s an honor to spotlight a few of our clients doing invaluable work in the behavioral health space, highlighting their stories and the impact of their work on the communities they serve.
Affect Therapeutics
Tell us about who you are:
Affect is transforming how people access addiction treatment. Operating in 20 states and rapidly expanding, Affect is a digital program that delivers evidence-based care for alcohol and drug addiction through a private, HIPAA-compliant app.
Founded in 2020, our mission is simple: make high-quality addiction care more accessible, more effective, and more in tune with real life. Through telehealth counseling, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and a unique contingency management system that rewards progress, Affect offers a comprehensive approach to recovery — right from your phone.
We work with major health insurers to provide discreet, flexible treatment options that meet people where they are and support long-term sobriety. Starting later this year, we’re proud to expand our impact even further with the launch of our digital mental health treatment program.
What’s a recent accomplishment you’re proud of?
We're proud of the outcomes we're delivering — but just as proud of how we’re doing it. Affect was built to serve the communities that need it most: individuals covered by Medicaid.
We’ve led the way as the first fully licensed, telehealth-only addiction treatment provider in several states, including Washington and Iowa. We’ve also earned accreditation from CARF, the gold standard in behavioral healthcare. But what motivates us most are the stories we hear every day — of progress, of resilience, and of lives being rebuilt. Those are the moments that fuel our mission.
InStride
Tell us about who you are:
InStride Health is an insurance-based, specialty provider delivering life-changing anxiety and OCD care for kids, teens, young adults (ages 7-22), and their families. Grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), InStride’s evidence-based approach focuses on exposure therapy to help young people face their fears and anxieties in the places and situations that matter most. Our dedicated care team of a therapist, exposure coach, and psychiatrist, teaches youth and their families the skills needed to see lasting results.
What’s a recent accomplishment you’re proud of?
With superior clinical quality as our North Star, we are proud that our results for young people are truly bringing them care that leads to lasting change.
Clinical outcomes released in March 2025 are on par with top-ranked academic hospital programs: 90% of InStride Health graduates experience a reduction in anxiety following two months of treatment and 98% of graduates experienced overall clinical improvement. We have strived to remove barriers to care by accepting most commercial insurances and beginning a young person's treatment within 1-4 weeks, depending on family schedules.
