Talkspace Self-Guided Promotes Overall
Wellness, Supports Working Parents and Strengthens
Relationships
Talkspace, the leading provider of virtual behavioral health
services, today announced the launch of Talkspace
Self-Guided, a suite of offerings for employers designed
to help executives, managers, and teams prioritize and build
emotional intelligence (EQ) and mental wellness in and out of the
workplace. Packaged in a single smartphone app, Talkspace
Self-Guided goes beyond mindfulness exercises to offer employees
tried-and-true mental health training that can be accessed
anonymously at any time, and can benefit their work and personal
lives.
A recent study by Talkspace and The Harris Poll found that two
out of every three employees considering leaving their jobs
believed their employer had not followed through on early pandemic
promises to focus on mental health. Talkspace Self-Guided allows
employers to make mental health support more easily accessible to
their workforce, so they can retain talent, improve interpersonal
relationships between team members, and provide employees with the
tools to build a healthy and fulfilling career. The app is built on
the principles of attachment therapy, which looks at how a person’s
earliest bonds with their caregivers help them better understand
their emotions as individuals, as parents, and as partners in a
relationship.
“Most managers do a good job at hiring a competent, skilled
staff. Where managers and supervisors often struggle is hiring for,
and teaching, those soft skills that create EQ such as self
awareness, motivation, embracing change, establishing boundaries
and how to simply get along with others. As companies return to an
in-office setting, Talkspace Self-Guided can help employees
navigate change, refresh their interpersonal skills and learn new
strategies that can drive a happier relationship with work,” said
Talkspace Chief Growth Officer Erin Boyd.
“The range of issues employees may be grappling with are not
necessarily visible on the surface, especially as many continue
struggling with the ongoing effects of the pandemic, and now,
returning to the office,” said Talkspace’s Self-Guided Therapy Head
Liz Colizza, LPC, NCC. “By offering courses and subject matter that
ranges from stress management to self-awareness, and allowing
employees to engage with it anonymously, on their own time, we are
providing employers with practical, effective, and empowering
solutions for their people.”
Talkspace Self-Guided leverages the framework from its Lasting
from Talkspace products, which have proven to be effective for
individuals, couples and families. Among initial users of these
solutions, 73% of individuals report greater self-awareness from
just 20 minutes of use per day, 79% say it helped them parent more
effectively, and 90% of couples who use self-guided features
together report new relationship strengths. Talkspace brings this
best-in-class product suite to organizations as a part of the
Talkspace comprehensive mental health package.
