Problem
Behavioral health patients receive most of their care during brief, scheduled therapy sessions, leaving the remaining 167 hours of the week without immediate emotional support. This gap can lead to unmanaged distress, reduced engagement, and potential relapse between visits.
Solution
Thrive Mental offers Claire ena™, an AI‑powered, phone‑based companion that delivers structured, evidence‑informed conversations to patients between therapy appointments and after discharge. By using real‑time voice interactions, the system helps users process emotions, apply therapeutic techniques such as CBT skills, and navigate daily challenges as they arise. The service integrates with providers’ discharge planning and ongoing care, extending clinical influence without adding staff workload. Patients can call the dedicated number at any time, receiving judgment‑free, personalized support that reinforces progress and promotes continuity of care.
Target Audience
