Nobu: A Mental Health App that Provides Everything You Need to Explore Your Thoughts, Emotions and Mental Health Goals.
Nobu was created by Advanced Recovery Systems, a physician led behavioral health care company that operates accredited addiction treatment facilities across the U.S. and delivers high quality addiction and mental health treatment for adults and adolescents.
ORLANDO, Fla., July 20, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Advanced Recovery Systems proudly announces the launch of Nobu: a free, comprehensive mental health app that helps users learn about mental health, set wellness goals and track their progress. Nobu also offers professional one-on-one counseling directly through the app. Nobu is available now in the Apple App Store, Google Play store and at Nobu.ai.
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.
- Nearly 1 in 5 people who contracted COVID-19 later developed a psychiatric disorder, such as anxiety, depression or insomnia.
- Approximately 33% of U.S. counties have no 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. Nobu will help more people to get the help they need to take good care of their mental health, regardless of where they live.
Nobu offers daily guidance and a suite of free tools developed by physicians and mental health experts using evidence-based principles of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness and meditation to provide effective relief for mental health symptoms. Users can customize their mental wellness journey with different features, including:
- AI-Powered Bot helping you to navigate through your Journey and measure progress
- Industry-standard clinical assessments for mental health conditions
- Hundreds of mental health lessons and webinars
- Journaling & mood tracking
- Goal setting and tracking
- Yoga meditation and breathing techniques
- Sleep sounds
People in need of more support can also schedule and attend online therapy sessions with a licensed mental health professional through the app, and/or communicate with their therapist through a confidential messages feature. Like traditional in-person therapy, costs associated with working with a Nobu teletherapist may be covered by insurance.
Nobu is a secure, stigma-free platform that is fully HIPAA-compliant and supplements current HR programs and employee assistance programs (EAPs). For more information on Nobu, its features and how employers can use Nobu to support employees' mental wellness, visit Nobu.ai.
