Our Story
From our UK and US offices, the Wellmind Health team is dedicated to providing high-quality digital interventions that make a real and lasting impact on real lives. Our founders first recognised the incredible potential of digital mental health training in 2002 when they connected their backgrounds in web production with efforts to improve their own mental health.
We take great pride in the incredible user feedback our courses generate and the high level of clinical validity they receive. Our founding library of guided meditations, Meditainment, has enjoyed outstanding reviews for nearly two decades and is an integral part of Pathway through Pain. Digital therapeutics Be Mindful and Pathway through Pain both passed the DAQ2 health app assessment which sets rigorous NHS quality standards for clinical effectiveness, safety, security, usability and accessibility. They are also the top-rated apps for depression and chronic pain respectively on ORCHA’s AppFinder, the world’s leading digital health evaluation organisation, with Be Mindful also joint top-rated for anxiety and stress.
Millions of people experience mental health issues each year and suffer from chronic pain on a daily basis. Depression, stress, anxiety and chronic pain take their toll. They have a deep impact on individual lives, careers and futures, affect partners and family members, and require significant levels of care and support from health services. Whether accessed via clinicians, employers or by individuals themselves, our courses are here to help people take control and lead a better quality of life.

Our Platform
Wellmind Health's digital courses run entirely upon an in-house platform that was created exclusively for the development and delivery of digital therapeutics, and the reporting of its clinical effectiveness. Our highly specialized, proprietary, cloud-based LCMS (learning content management system) is accessible via a secure web-based management interface. This interface enables administrators, clinicians and therapists to manage course participants, monitor engagement and satisfaction with the course, and report on their self-assessed mental health outcomes, using a variety of clinical outcome measurements.
INTEROPERABILITY AND SECURITY
The platform offers a fully featured, extensible API, with role-based permissions that enable integration with healthcare platforms such as IAPTus. The platform satisfies and complies with all clinical digital therapeutic legal requirements in force in the UK, European Union and United States.
Our platform's security-focused, cloud-based architecture adheres to strict security, compliance, and risk management controls.
Please get in touch if you need to discuss how we can integrate any of our courses with your own systems.

Wellmind Health’s NHS-approved courses have been trusted by clinicians and organisations to deliver outstanding results for nearly a decade. Research studies on our courses by leading academic and clinical institutions continue to demonstrate their lasting effectiveness.
"I call it a gold standard. We frequently quote the user feedback because the reviews we receive are profoundly moving. Some people achieve a recovery using Be Mindful that would be almost difficult for any clinical service to achieve."
"Be Mindful is a really helpful and creative way for us to appeal to a wider client demographic within our IAPT service. Clients have benefitted from being able to access a structured online course in the comfort of their own home. We have been really pleased with the service and would recommend to other IAPT providers."
"The staff at Wellmind Health have been a pleasure to work with, their service has been first class - prompt, professional and personable. The course has been well received by my colleagues and our customers who have completed it."
"One clear reason for opting for Be Mindful is that it had evidently been tried and tested and had received medical validation. It's also very easy to measure the impact and report results into our corporate health and safety group."
“Pathway through Pain is a core element of our service. Patients don’t have to wait for treatments to fail before they are offered the programme - very often they go on the programme after just 1 or 2 sessions of seeing us.”
"We've provided staff with a whole range of mental health support resources, including Be Mindful. One of the driving forces at the start was the flexibility of the Be Mindful programme, allowing people to self-manage, and do it when it fits them best."
"The online programme enables patients to engage with education quickly. Since COVID-19, it really has been a godsend. Following government guidelines, our face-to-face programme had to be suspended and having Pathway through Pain to access enabled us to move to a fully digital pathway, while incorporating psychoeducation."
"With its listing on the NHS Apps Library, an RCT showing significant efficacy, and a track record of NHS commissions, and with real benefits associated with primary care referral, Be Mindful was a priority of ours for listing on the EMIS Apps Library. We're very much looking forward to help scale the benefits of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy"
“The flexibility in the course delivery has been excellent, enabling staff to complete the lessons in their own time - and the results achieved by those completing have been very encouraging.”
"Always a quick response from the administrators if needing additional support or support for clients. Issues dealt with promptly and effectively (although there aren't many). Clients tell us it is easy to use, although at times 'challenging' (in that the material 'opens their eyes' to different opportunities to experience good mental health). All round good service and value of money"
“We know that employee stress and anxiety can come from any angle – at both work and home – but we also know that talking therapies are not suited to everyone. Making Be Mindful available to all our staff has provided a highly effective, self-help solution they can access anonymously and in their own time.”
"Be Mindful has enabled clients at Inclusion Thurrock to access mindfulness in a way that suits them and fits into their lives. Wellmind have been supportive in the integration of Be Mindful into our service and have continued to be there with quick responses to any queries along the way."
"Engaging in the Pathway through Pain programme has absolutely been a positive change in the way that we work. Activating someone on the programme is really quick, and it's quite easy which is definitely helping with wait times."
"I've found the uptake of Be Mindful to be excellent. The provider is extremely efficient & accommodating. The platform allows me to see participant progress & engagement with simple reporting, saves me time & demonstrates impact to commissioners. Most importantly, practitioners find it a useful tool to move people closer to work by helping them better manage their mental health"
"Pathway through Pain is now integral to our pain service. It improves the quality of life of the patients we serve - and its improved my quality of life no end; I don’t tell patient after patient the same thing time and again in my clinic - the course does it for me!"

"Be Mindful is extremely helpful for our clients. It is a great relapse prevention measure and I have had reports that they continue to practice long after the programme has finished. As for the support from Be Mindful admin, it is second to none."
“What's amazing for me is that once people have learned these Mindfulness techniques, they keep using them. Receiving so many stories of participants’ lived experience is also really important. It's not just about statistical measurements, it's actually making a significant difference to someone’s life.”
"We currently have a pilot programme in operation, the system is easy to use for administration/enrolment of participants and our nominated contact Rebecca is always available for assistance and is very helpful"
"Pathway through Pain has opened up a cohort of patients we weren't able to access previously. Housebound patients with internet access are now able to benefit from a virtual pain pathway and PTP is important in their psychoeducation."
