Head of HappifyDTx

Digital Therapeutics - Digital Health - Mental Health I lead Happify's digital therapeutics effort to take its world-leading digital mental health and wellbeing platform to the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry. I also serve as a board member for the Digital Therapeutics Alliance. For most patients, the stress, anxiety and depression associated with their disease have a more profound impact on their wellbeing and quality of life than does the disease itself. The Happify mental health and wellbeing platform enables us to help Pharma companies to create "value beyond the pill" by providing digital complements and companions that improve the efficacy of their drug therapy. This approach enables a pharmaceuticals firm to "own the disease" by providing a comprehensive, total solution that address a broad array of the patients health and wellbeing challenges to improve their total health across multiple dimensions: mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, intellectual, financial, environmental.
