When the pandemic hit, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) faced a significant reduction in clinical staff, a dramatic rise in services utilization, and a greater need for more diverse clinical care. As a result, the university turned to telehealth services and found that Mantra Health was best suited for their campus needs. 

In this case study, we explore the challenges faced by MIT Medical’s Student Mental Health and Counseling Services, the reasons why Karen Singleton, PhD, the counseling center’s director, chose Mantra over its competitors, and how Mantra has helped address student mental health in a highly-academic and pressure-filled environment. 

What you’ll learn:

• Why MIT sought clinical providers with lived experiences 
• How Mantra helped reduce provider burnout at MIT
• Why Mantra has received a 4.8 / 5 rating from students 

“One of the things that we really like about Mantra Health is that it's flexible. At first we thought we didn't need any psychiatry, then we decided to include a few psychiatry hours. Then we decided to add more and then we scaled it back so it does allow you to have an accordion model where you can expand and contract as needed. That really worked for us.” - Dr. Singleton
