Digital health disruptor Virgin Pulse is integrating their platform with mental health company Headspace.
Virgin Pulse partners will have access to Headspaces's behavioral health coaching, therapy, psychiatry and employee assistance program services. Through the partnership, Virgin Pulse will also provide Headspace's services to its employees, according to a June 28 Virgin Pulse news release.
"Market uncertainty and increasing workplace pressures are placing greater stress on employees and employers, as well as their health plans, and taking a drastic toll on our collective mental health and wellbeing," Headspace CEO Russell Glass said. "Headspace and Virgin Pulse have a shared purpose of wanting to improve people's lives. Together, we are making it easier for employers and health plans to offer a range of mental health services that will drive better well-being, helping their businesses thrive."
