About Cognito Health
Our Mission
Our founding team recognizes that the Canadian healthcare system does not effectively treat mental health patients.
Through our experience working in the Canadian healthcare system, we're constantly seeing a lack of mental health resources for Canadians and ever extending waitlists for mental health services.
With Cognito, we're changing the way mental health is provided to all Canadians. Our mission is to make Canadian mental health care more:
Accessible
Affordable
Immediate
Integrated
It’s Time For A Change
Approximately 17% of Canadians are struggling with their mental health.
One in every two Canadians have or have had a mental illness by the time they reach 40 years of age.
Only about half of Canadians experiencing a major depressive episode receive potentially adequate care.
Common wait times for therapy and counselling are between six months and one year.
A new standard of care for mental health in Canada

Francois
Director of Medicine
As a physician working in family practice for the past 25 years I have witnessed the increasing gaps and issues surrounding adequate mental health care and support. Cognito provides the opportunity to patients to receive this support on a timely and regular basis.
Bhavan
Director of Quality & Practice
Accessing basic health care services can be overwhelming in our current system, creating frustration, worsening of chronic conditions. Cognito has really reduced many of the common barriers patient face, enabling people to have a better experience.
