Depression & Anxiety Support
EAP utilization nudges, telehealth mental health access, and wellness app activation — framed as routine maintenance, not crisis response. Mental health care is healthcare.
Mental Health Is Healthcare
NudgeWell's approach to mental health is grounded in one principle: routine maintenance beats crisis response. Depression and anxiety respond well to early intervention — and EAP sessions, therapy, and wellness apps are far more accessible than most employees believe.
Our copy framing is intentionally non-alarmist. We don't talk about "mental health crises." We talk about checking in, staying on track, and using the resources you've already paid for. This reduces stigma and increases utilization.
How NudgeWell Helps
📞 EAP Session Utilization Nudges
Most employer plans include 3–8 free EAP sessions per year. Yet utilization averages under 2 sessions per eligible employee. NudgeWell sends reminders when sessions are available — and at higher urgency when year-end FSA/HSA balances and 45-day urgency windows coincide.
EAP Utilization · Telehealth CTA · $200/session value📹 Telehealth Mental Health Access
Telehealth mental health (psychiatry and therapy) is accessible from anywhere. NudgeWell surfaces telehealth portal access for employees whose plan_details include a telehealth URL — and sends nudges in high-stress periods (year-end, open enrollment) when demand peaks.
Telehealth · $110/visit · Available in all states📈 Wellness App Activation
Many employer plans include premium subscriptions to wellness apps (Calm, Headspace, Noom). Most employees never activate them. NudgeWell identifies unactivated apps in the plan_details and sends activation nudges — especially effective during high-stress periods.
Wellness App · $150/year employer value · No cost to employee🚦 Low Sleep — EAP Counseling Nudges
Google Fit data showing consistently low sleep (<6.5 hours) is a behavioral signal that correlates with elevated stress. NudgeWell sends gentle EAP nudges to employees with wellness connections — framed as "better sleep starts with better support," not "your sleep data triggered a nudge."

Your Action Steps
- Check your EAP balance. How many free sessions does your plan include? Most employees don't know — and leave sessions on the table. NudgeWell tracks utilization; log into the portal to see yours.
- Activate your wellness app. If your employer offers Calm, Headspace, or another wellness app, activate it this week. NudgeWell will nudge you if you haven't.
- Consider a check-in, not a crisis. EAP sessions don't require a diagnosis. They're for "life happens" moments — a difficult quarter, a family transition, ongoing anxiety. No stigma required.
- Connect Google Fit for sleep-aware nudges. Not required — but if you do, you'll receive more relevant EAP nudges based on actual behavioral signals rather than generic reminders.
