Kerros Health





Mental health and well-being are fundamental to our collective and individual ability as humans to think, emote, interact with each other, earn a living and enjoy life. Mental health is an integral part of health; indeed, there is no health without mental health. Yet one in four adults in America suffers from a diagnosable mental disorder in any given year. At Kerros, we're rebranding mental healthcare and reimagining how it is treated. Kerros offers mobile-based programs proven to improve mental health. The pillars of our program are personal coaching, evidence-based training, and mobile group support. Our self-guided programs are affordable, rooted in clinically-validated techniques, and optimized for usability and engagement.
