Episode 43 is with Mohsen Omrani and Sarah Rennick.

Mohsen is the CEO & President of OPTT, a digital health start-up that provides behavioural health providers the tools to build an affordable, online mental health clinic powered with AI. Sarah is the Co-Founder and CEO of Alli Therapy, an online therapy portal for parents when they need it, in the way they need it.

The need for mental health professionals has been on the rise for decades, but has now skyrocketed due to the ongoing global pandemic. Credible, reliable online resources help tackle this issue while navigating the tech landscape to extend their reach. So, how did they do it?

We speak with Mohsen and Sarah about their respective journeys in the field of mental health. They detail what lead them to studying the brain, how their companies are solving the next crisis we’re currently faced with, and what you can do every day to address your mental health.

We hope you find this conversation insightful, informative, and most of all, helpful.
