For families
Real support for your college student. Peace of mind for you.
You have invested everything in your student. We built BetterMind to be the daily mental health support that actually fits college life. With a real human therapist behind it.
The care system
More than weekly therapy. More than an app.
Casey handles the daily check-ins. Eleanor is the licensed therapist and reviews what Casey sees. Together, they help spot concerns early, between sessions.
01 / Every day
Daily check-ins
Casey sends your student the first message every day: a seon-tok (선톡, Korean for "texting first"). No waiting for a bad moment to open the app cold. Builds habits, tracks mood. Real human therapists when they need more.
02 / Every week
Real human therapist
Eleanor Williams, MSW, LCSW. NC-licensed. Weekly Pulse Checks plus monthly hour-long sessions. A real clinician who knows your student's story.
03 / With consent
Optional parent dashboard
With your student's consent, see wellbeing trends, never session details. Stay informed while respecting their privacy.
What's private, what's shared
Boundaries you can trust.
Most college students are legally adults. Their care is their own. Here is what that means for you, and where we draw the lines.
What stays private
- Session content and transcripts
- Casey conversation history
- What your student shares with Eleanor
- Specific clinical assessments
What you can see, with consent
- High-level wellbeing trends over time
- Whether sessions are happening on schedule
- Engagement with daily check-ins
- Family-friendly resources and tools
If your student is in danger, Eleanor and the on-call clinical team act first and contact you when clinically appropriate. Safety is never traded for privacy.
Why this works
Built around how college students actually live.
Wait times at campus counseling are weeks or months.
Most colleges cap students at six total sessions per academic year. Your student deserves more than that.
Traditional therapy does not fit busy student schedules.
Casey is available 24/7. Pulse Checks are 15 minutes. Deep dives are once a month. The rhythm fits the life.
Stigma keeps too many students silent.
Casey is private, judgment-free, and always there. By the time a student talks to Eleanor, they have already practiced putting words to what they are feeling.
FAQ
Common parent questions.
What is the parent progress dashboard?
With your student's explicit consent, you receive high-level insights about their wellbeing trends, without accessing private session details. You stay informed while respecting their privacy.
Is my student's data really private?
Yes. Elechris Health and Wellness, PLLC protects your student's health information under HIPAA. Records are kept on infrastructure operated by Clinician Assist Inc. under a Business Associate Agreement. Your student's privacy is the priority. We do not sell data, ever.
How is this different from other mental health apps?
Casey combines 24/7 AI support with real human therapist oversight. Your student gets immediate help anytime, and a licensed clinician, Eleanor Williams, MSW, LCSW, is always in the loop.
What does it cost?
At partner universities, daily Casey access and one-on-one sessions with Eleanor are covered through the campus partnership. For students elsewhere or off-campus support, monthly and semester plans are available, plus a scholarship pathway for families with financial need.
Can my student switch therapists?
Yes. Therapeutic fit matters. Elechris Health and Wellness, PLLC operates the NC practice; if Eleanor is not the right match, we can help with a clinical handoff to another provider in the network or in your area.
Casey and Eleanor are your peace-of-mind insurance.
Because you would be heartbroken if anything went wrong. And because your student deserves real, daily support.
