Nova Southeastern University Partners with TAO Connect to Strengthen Student and Faculty Mental Health and Wellness

Partnership provides free online access to more than 150 self-guided interactive digital sessions on anxiety, depression, substance abuse and more through the NSU’s counseling center

UF startup TAO Connect, a digital platform designed to make behavioral health therapy more accessible and effective, announced its partnership with Nova Southeastern University (NSU). All NSU students, faculty, and staff now have 24/7 access via mobile app or web browser to TAO Connect’s suite of evidence-based, self-guided mental health and wellness exercises through the NSU Center for Student Counseling and Wellbeing by Henderson Behavioral Health.

“Access to mental health services is an obstacle that many college students face, especially as pandemic-related closures, isolations, and general uncertainty prevail for yet another semester,” said Sherry Benton, Ph.D., ABPP, chief science officer and founder of TAO Connect, which graduated from UF Innovate | Accelerate at The Hub. “TAO Connect’s mission from day one has been to increase accessibility to mental health care to those that need it most, and we are thrilled to partner with Nova Southeastern University to care for their students.”
