The Talkspace network of 5,000+ licensed clinicians includes therapists and psychiatric providers with specialized knowledge of more than 150 conditions and treatment approaches. Founded in 2012, Talkspace pioneered message-based therapy, fulfilling an unmet desire of many people to text with a therapist, any time, from anywhere. We have grown into a single destination for comprehensive mental health care, including specialized therapy for individuals, couples, and teens, psychiatry and medication management, and self-guided tools and resources. All care is delivered through our fully-encrypted web and mobile platform that meets HIPAA, federal, and state regulatory requirements. More than 130 million people have access to Talkspace through their health plans for the cost of a copay or free through their employer, college or university, school district, or government agency. Making high-quality mental health support available to all is the Talkspace mission, and we’re just getting started.

Co-founded by Drs. John and Julie Schwartz Gottman, The Gottman Institute has two major functions: helping couples directly, and providing state-of-the-art training to mental health professionals and other health care providers. The Gottman Institute applies leading-edge research on marriage in a practical, down-to-earth therapy and trains therapists committed to helping couples. No other approach to couples education and therapy has relied on such intensive, detailed, and long-term scientific study of why marriages succeed or fail. Just as Masters and Johnson were pioneers in the study of human sexuality, so Dr. John Gottman has revolutionized the study of marriage. For nearly four decades he has conducted research on all facets of relationships, including parenting issues. At The Gottman Institute, in collaboration with Dr. Julie Schwartz Gottman, he developed an approach that not only supports and repairs troubled marriages and committed relationships, but strengthens happy ones. The Gottman Institute provides live workshops and take-home training materials for couples, while The Gottman Referral Network provides therapy referrals to couples. We understand that the human family is in crisis, and that all individuals are capable of and deserve compassion. It is our mission to reach out to families in order to help create and maintain greater love and health in relationships.

The Couples Institute provides therapy, workshops, and informational websites for couples, and a variety of training and seminars for couples therapists. The Institute's network of experienced marriage counselors serves the San Francisco Bay Area all the way south to Morgan Hill. Drs. Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson are founders of The Couples Institute, which is directed by Ellyn, in Menlo Park, California. The Couples Institute is dedicated to helping couples create extraordinary relationships. Peter and Ellyn have been featured on over 50 radio and television programs including “The Today Show” and “CBS Early Morning News.” Visit https://www.couplesinstitute.com. Our mission is to create strong, loving relationships, and to eliminate unnecessary divorces.
