Limbic
Limbic is optimizing the self-referral and e-triage processes to increase access to mental health services and release clinicians’ time from administrative tasks. On a mission to amplify therapists’ impact, Limbic also focuses on improving treatment efficacy by helping clinicians keep patients engaged between sessions.
One in four people will experience a mental health issue this year. Yet, there’s only one therapist per 100,000 people to support them. The rising mental health needs surpass the supply of qualified therapists, and create a mental healthcare deficit.
Limbic’s software offers end-to-end support for clinicians and patients during cognitive behavioral therapy, releasing clinical and administrative time and improving the quality of care. Limbic Access, Limbic’s AI-powered chatbot, optimizes the self-referral and e-triage processes. Using cutting-edge and clinically validated Machine Learning models, Limbic Access takes the patient inputs, computes the right ADSM to administer, and identifies a likely presenting problem. Limbic Care, Limbic’s patient app, supports therapists in engaging patients between treatments, improving treatment outcomes and reducing dropouts.
