For the health system, and treatment that is unaffordable for many.

Prevents people from seeking help.
Average wait for mental health treatment in an already under-resourced system.
A one-time phone call - or full long-term therapy. Nothing in between.
Israelis experiencing mental distress, roughly 40% have conditions that don’t require clinical treatment – but do require more than a phone call. These are the people we exist for.
