About April Health
April Health is working to deliver high-quality, virtual behavioral health services to patients in the United States.

April Health partners with primary care, women's health, and pediatric practices to provide a hybrid behavioral health solution that combines human care management with AI-driven support to improve patient outcomes, reduce provider burden, and generate new revenue for our partners. Patients conduct regular appointments with our behavioral health care managers, receive guidance from psychiatrists, and our AI Therapeutic Coach helps patients between appointments, maximizing the value that patients receive in our program.
