About Us
As mental health practitioners, researchers, and experience designers, we’ve experienced first hand that delivering optimally effective skills coaching is a significant challenge for therapists and coaches. Even group practices struggle because they don’t have proper tools to facilitate adherent skills coaching on-demand. We created Relay to fix that.
