A high-performing workforce starts with mental health. Lyra is your partner in delivering evidence-based mental health care that transforms lives and drives business results.

Worldwide, 970 million people are living with mental health issues. The biggest hurdle isn’t treatment—it’s access. Lyra’s co-founder and CEO, David Ebersman, left his job as Meta’s chief financial officer in 2014 to tackle the problem by making it easier to find and get treatment and using technology to make it smarter, more personalized, and more effective.

Since then, more than 300 leading companies have partnered to offer Lyra’s mental health benefits to their employees, including Meta, Pinterest, and Starbucks, giving more than 13 million people access to life-changing care.

Quickly and Accurately Diagnose Your Patients for Depression and Other Mental Health Conditions. Connected Mind™ is a mental health assessment tool designed to help you take the guesswork out of diagnosing and treating your patients for depression and other common mental health conditions. Its logic engine allows you to accurately identify those conditions and provide better care for your patients. Connected Mind™ helps you to make an informed decision regarding referral or treatment. Rather than requiring you to pick and choose which assessment to administer, its logic engine adds or rules out each condition. Then, it specifically tailors each successive assessment to the individual patient based on his or her responses. The end result is a customized report designed to give you everything you need to accurately diagnose and track each patient. If you decide to refer the patient to a specialist, then you will be able to provide that doctor a detailed report showing your decision making process.

With Lyra 88% of members improve or recover. Lyra uses validated clinical measures, such as the PHQ-9 and the GAD-7, to assess symptom improvement for anxiety, depression, and other common mental health issues. Reliable clinical change is a 6-point difference on the PHQ-9 and a 4-point change on the GAD-7.

At Lyra, we use “reliable clinical improvement” to measure change, which means that an individual in treatment has improved enough on a measure of clinical symptoms that we don’t believe the change can be accounted for by normal variation in scores or measurement error.

Connected Mind is a clinically validated mental health screening tool designed to uncover underlying mental health conditions. It screens for the 6 most common connected conditions simultaneously using an automated intelligent branching logic engine. Healthcare systems that are currently using the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 to screen their patients are missing out on important details for their patients as well as billable CPT codes for their bottom line. 

Connected Mind simultaneously screens for 6 common conditions that most impact physical health. Our tool is clinically validated and easily integrates with all compliant EHRs.
