SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Cerebral, Inc.<\/a>, the leading online provider of psychiatric and behavioral therapy services, announced today a partnership with Arkansas Colleges of Health Education<\/a> (ACHE) to provide all students access to its telehealth services.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nA study<\/a> conducted by UC Berkeley found that in 2020, 32% of graduate and professional students screened positive for major depressive disorder, which is two times higher in comparison to 2019. ACHE will be providing their graduate students an extra layer of support by providing access to Cerebral\u2019s virtual mental health services, including therapy, counseling, medication management, and digital resources.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cStudents are experiencing increased mental health disorders and oftentimes don\u2019t have the necessary resources available to them,\u201d said Jeff Soffen, SVP of Commercial and B2B at Cerebral. \u201cACHE has recognized this and has removed the barriers to care. We\u2019re honored to partner with ACHE and provide their students access to high-quality mental health care services.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThrough the partnership with Cerebral, Arkansas Colleges of Health Education students no longer have to worry about barriers to care such as cost and wait times. Eighty percent of individuals can also connect with a Cerebral provider within five days versus a wait time of three to four months that is often experienced when seeking care from a mental health facility.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cStudent Wellness is a cornerstone of success for all students,\u201d said Laurel McIntosh, Senior Assistant Dean of Student Affairs at Arkansas Colleges of Health Education. \u201cAt ACHE, our students have 24\/7 access to wellness services. Students have access to on-campus clinical therapy services, off-site counseling, psychiatric services, medication management needs, and telehealth wellness. Our partnership with Cerebral will help ensure that our students have access to exceptional services.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nSince Cerebral\u2019s launch in 2020, the company has provided mental health care to more than 400,000 patients. Cerebral has also achieved industry-leading patient outcomes:\n<\/p>\n
