Manage episode 427843635 series 3346561
As a country, we are experiencing mental health crises across all ages. I sit down with Dr.Jenna Glover, Chief Clinical Officer at Headspace, to delve into the pressing mental health crisis in the United States.
We are facing alarming statistics, including that 1 in 5 adults experience mental illness annually, 17% of youth aged 6-17 grapple with mental health disorders, and suicide ranks as the second leading cause of death among individuals aged 10-34. Against this backdrop, Glover discusses how Headspace, a digital mental health platform, addresses these challenges through accessible meditation and mindfulness tools tailored for various age groups and life circumstances, as well as mental health coaching, therapy, and psychiatry.
As we share equal concern regarding the massive shift we witness, Dr. Glover highlights Headspace's innovative approaches, such as the "Monster Meditations" program designed specifically for children, and a diverse range of exercises catering to adults from all walks of life.
She emphasizes the company's commitment to equity, detailing how their research-driven methodology has improved the platform's inclusivity and effectively removed barriers to access for diverse populations.
This focus on equity in both research and delivery has resulted in increased usage across different demographic groups, positioning Headspace as a vital resource in the ongoing effort to support mental health for all Americans.
