Description: Toivoa is the leader in developing software-based medicines, called prescription digital therapeutics (PDTs) for people with disabilities who experience mental health disorders. PDTs deliver clinically validated, evidence-based therapeutic interventions through a smartphone - anywhere and anytime.
Mental health needs are the single largest driver of disability costs. The National Alliance of Mental Illness estimates that untreated mental illness already costs us up to $300 billion annually due to lost productivity and associated costs due to absenteeism, employee turnover increases in medical and disability expenses.
Our mental health care system, which was built as a patchwork of clinics, was already overwhelmed and unable to adequately support the needs of serious mental health illness prior to the pandemic. So now, more than ever, we need tools and resources to help the growing mental health needs of this country.
And that's why we created Toivoa. We are breaking the mold by striving to develop accessible innovations meant to address mental health illness through a scalable, digital, personalized cognitive behavioral therapy for people with disabilities. Because everyone deserves a chance to grow and heal.
