Mental Health Is Essential: Why CrowdCare Puts Emotional Wellbeing Front and Center

When we think of healthcare, we often picture physical check-ups, prescriptions, or emergency care. But there’s an equally vital aspect that’s too often overlooked: mental health.

In Brazil and around the world, access to mental health care remains a challenge—long wait times, high costs, and stigma prevent millions from getting the support they need. That’s why CrowdCare is changing the conversation. We believe mental and emotional health is just as important as physical well-being, and we treat it that way.

Here’s how CrowdCare is making mental health care more accessible, affordable, and human.

1. Mental Health Included—Not an Add-On

With most traditional health plans, mental health services are:

  • Separate from your main coverage

  • Limited in session count

  • Difficult to access without a referral

  • Often tied to outdated or overworked networks

At CrowdCare, mental health support is built in:

  • Every member has access to therapy, counseling, and emotional support

  • No extra fees

  • No referral hoops

  • No waiting months to speak to someone

Because taking care of your mind is not optional—it’s essential.

2. Teletherapy: Flexible, Private, and Effective

One of the key ways CrowdCare improves access is through teletherapy—virtual mental health appointments that bring care to you, wherever you are.

Benefits of teletherapy through CrowdCare:

  • 🧠 Speak to licensed therapists without leaving your home

  • 📱 Available on your smartphone, tablet, or computer

  • 🕓 Appointments at times that work for your schedule

  • 🔒 100% private and confidential

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, burnout, grief, or relationship stress, help is just a click away.

3. Care Advocates to Guide Your Journey

Not sure where to start? Feeling overwhelmed?

CrowdCare members have access to a Care Advocate—a real person who listens and helps guide your care journey. They’ll:

  • Help you find the right type of mental health support

  • Schedule your therapy sessions

  • Follow up to ensure you’re receiving the support you need

You’re never alone with CrowdCare. You’re supported every step of the way.

4. Breaking the Stigma, Building a Culture of Care

Mental health should not be hidden behind shame, confusion, or fear. At CrowdCare, we’re working to:

  • Normalize emotional support

  • Provide culturally relevant care

  • Empower people to speak up and seek help

We believe that a healthy community is one that supports the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.

5. Real Stories, Real Change

Luciana, 30, freelancer in São Paulo:
“Therapy saved me during a really dark time. I didn’t think I could afford help until I joined CrowdCare. The fact that it’s included in my plan is incredible.”

Rafael, 45, father of two:
“My son was dealing with social anxiety after the pandemic. CrowdCare connected us with a child therapist, and the change has been life-changing.”

Mental Health Shouldn’t Be a Luxury

With CrowdCare, emotional wellness is a right—not a privilege. Our mission is to make mental health care affordable, easy to access, and part of everyday care—not something that’s left for a crisis.

If you're looking for a health plan that sees you as a whole person, you're in the right place.
