Why Did We Create Nobu?
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for mental health resources became even more urgent.
- 75%of workers reported experiencing mental health symptoms during the pandemic.
- Nearly1 in 5 peoplewho contracted COVID-19 later developed a psychiatric disorder, such as anxiety, depression or insomnia.
- Approximately 33% of U.S. counties haveno records of licensed psychologists, and 77% had “severe shortages” of psychiatrists and other behavioral health providers.
Left untreated, mental health symptoms can negatively impact nearly all aspects of a person’s life. To provide effective relief for mental health symptoms, Nobu was developed by physicians and mental health experts using evidence-based principles of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness and meditation. Nobu will help more people get the help they need to take good care of their mental health, regardless of where they live.
