Our story

Since 2012, we’ve been working with our customers to break down barriers to mental health care access

Spun out from over a decade of academic and clinical research, SilverCloud® is an evidence-based, not just evidence-informed platform – we truly were born from research and the growing need for an effective and clinically validated digital product.

Supporting our customers to democratize access to care and eliminating the stigma surrounding mental health care have always been core to who we are.
