CARLSBAD, Calif., February 20, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wellin5, the premier provider of online counseling, proudly announces a new partnership with Kintsugi, an AI mental health technology leader. This collaboration comes at a time when Wellin5 has successfully navigated the turbulent economic landscape and challenges in the health tech space to thrive and bring this vital partnership to life, setting a new standard in mental health care for over 50,000 clients based in Canada and the USA.
"We are immensely proud of this partnership with Kintsugi.

"This collaboration will significantly enhance our ability to provide empathetic, effective, and data-driven care to our patients."
Kintsugi's AI-powered tool, Kintsugi Voice, will be integrated into Wellin5’s counseling services, offering a revolutionary mental health screening and monitoring approach.

This partnership with Kintsugi is a testament to Wellin5's continuous innovation and growth in the mental health space.
