Today,
one in four Americans suffer from a diagnosable mental illness, yet only one-third of those with symptoms are treated. Among the reasons why: The poor distribution of mental health professionals, the stigma that comes with mental health issues and, sadly, the high cost of care. In 2009, Mark Goldenson launched
BreakThrough at TechCrunch50 to address this problem, offering an easy and private way for anyone and everyone to connect with mental health professionals via email or a HIPAA-compliant video platform on the Web. Today, BreakThrough enables users to search for providers based on price, specialty or disorder, while giving psychiatrists and psychologists a management suite through which they can keep track of appointments and payments.
