Accentus Health launches mental health app
Cynthia Bent Findlay
Trauma left over from responding to COVID-19 is taking its toll on first responders … but now there’s an app for that.
The S.T.A.R. Support app by Accentus Health aims to put mental health resources in the hands of those seeking help 24/7.
Morgan Koth started Accentus Health to fill a niche he saw in the health and wellness space for providing well-rounded self-help.
Koth developed all-around fitness and wellness app OptimumU with Big Kitty Labs in 2019 to combine the missions of helping users track health and fitness stats and access motivation and mindfulness resources in one central, easy-access app.
