“I can’t even begin to tell you how much this program means to me. I’ve been avoiding therapy since being admitted to a crisis center in high school, and have been scared of the stigma ever since. When I finally decided to go back to therapy I learned my insurance wouldn’t cover it. This program came at the perfect time and I am so happy to finally have access to healing support and resources. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this program accessible to so many. ❤️ "

the issue at hand
According to NIMH & NAMI research:
73% of students experience some sort of mental health crisis during college
92% of female students report feeling frequently overwhelmed or anxious
Female students are more likely to experience eating disorders, depression, and PTSD
Only 25% of students with a mental health issue seek help or know where to get it
Most campuses have severely limited counselor support with a counselor to student ratio of 1:3000
71% of college students say they’d use tele-mental health services at their school if they had access. Unfortunately, most schools don’t. That’s where The Self Care Space comes in.
How It Works
The Self Care Space partners with your chapter or organization to give access to a safe space for women to get professional and community-based support with their mental health.
Our platform is accessible on desktop and mobile app, and we have the ability to create a private group just for members of your organization within the app as well.
It is designed to meet members where they’re at with a variety of options to participate in including self-guided therapy programming, group therapy sessions, emergency toolboxes, live monthly workshops, and discussion feeds.
what’s included?
Self-guided Therapy Programs
This allows members to choose the topics most relevant to their lives and take it at their own pace. Each module includes videos, therapeutic exercises, journal prompts, & holistic resources like meditation and breathwork. Over 24 topics and modules with more added quarterly.
Emergency Toolboxes
These help to address in-the-moment mental health concerns such as managing anxiety, dealing with a bad body image day, healing from loss & grief, navigating breakups, sleep support, and more. We provide evidence-based resources to support members through tough times.
Accountability Challenges
We make self-care fun and encourage commitment to healthy habits with our monthly accountability challenges. These allow women to connect over a common goal and support each other along the way, while being rewarded with fun & empowering prizes!
Group Therapy & Coaching Sessions
This is where connection and accountability come in. Every month our members have the option to attend a free group therapy & coaching session where they can get their questions answered with professional advice & feedback. These sessions also help women feel less alone.
Live Workshops with Experts
Working with one specialist is expensive, let alone getting support for multiple issues. So we bring them all into one place. Our expert therapists, psychologists, and holistic practitioners offer live workshops each month for members to gain new perspectives & life skills to support their growth.
Access To 1:1 Counselor Support
Sometimes you just need a little extra support during different seasons of life. A huge benefit of our membership is access to affordable counseling in all 50 states, without lengthy waitlists or dealing with insurance. Members can choose the right provider for them and book a session whenever they need it.
