Overview

The SilverCloud® by Amwell® Higher Education Solution is a scalable, digital mental-health and wellbeing platform designed specifically for higher-education institutions. It offers 24/7 access to self-guided and coach-supported programmes built on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and backed by clinical research. The platform supports students and faculty with interactive modules addressing stress, anxiety, depression, resilience, and chronic conditions, enabling institutions to enhance access, reduce wait times, and deliver measurable outcomes.

Features and Capabilities

• Access & Scalability: The platform provides self-guided digital programmes accessible at any time via mobile, tablet, or desktop, enabling institutions to reach large student and faculty populations.
• Evidence-Based Programmes: Built on two decades of clinical research, the platform supports behavioural change via CBT, with verified outcomes such as up to 80% of users showing symptom improvement and up to 65% achieving recovery.
• Tailored for Higher Education: Modules and support are designed to meet the unique mental-health needs of students and faculty, including stress resilience, student wellbeing, and chronic conditions.
• Personalisation & Support Options: Supports both self-guided use and options with assigned “Supporters” (trained coaches) who provide feedback and unlock additional content, enhancing engagement and outcomes.
• Integration & Cost Efficiency: Designed to complement existing campus counselling services, reducing burden on traditional provision, lowering cost per treated individual, and improving reach and outcomes.
• Outcomes & Monitoring: Incorporates validated clinical measures (e.g., PHQ-9, GAD-7), enabling institutions to monitor improvement, recovery rates, and engagement.
