Cost-Effectiveness and Return on Investment (ROI) Model for Digital Mental Health Training
Since 2019, our organization has been at the forefront of professionalizing education in digital mental health. Through our handbook, casebook, cyberpsychology research, and focus on clinical populations, we have trained professionals across Spanish-speaking countries, with plans to scale globally.
We aim to continue this work by expanding access to digital mental health education, and below is the projected cost-effectiveness and return on investment (ROI) for the next three years of our platform.
