"The Get A-Head platform has played a key role in allowing our organization to continue working with our athletes during the COVID-19 pandemic and works wonderfully for in-season and off-season. Besides allowing us to work together remotely, it enables us to easily manage scheduling, progress notes, and client data in order to deliver the highest quality of care to our athletes."

"The Get A-Head platform is the essence of innovation in the training space; in our case health coaching. Its features, such as the ability for supervisors to look over sessions, in-session progress notes and the ability to see a client's full file, make the teaching process so much more efficient and effective."

"Get A-Head equipped our clinical research program with the software necessary to conduct effective therapy training remotely during the past year, while also introducing us to new innovative tools that are going to change the future of mental health services and assessment. Despite the world opening up again, virtual services will make up a larger proportion of mental health care."

“Get A-Head’s unique features, such as the in-session private supervisor chat-box and built-in client file management system, provides a seamless experience for providing virtual therapy. Knowing that I am able to communicate with and have the support of my supervisor at any point during a session, without interrupting the client’s experience, gives me the confidence to relax and focus on doing my best for my clients and provides the opportunity for real-time, supervisor-supported learning and skill development.”
