Digital healthcare platform mWell has partnered with global mental health organization MindNation to expand access to mental health services for Filipinos, amid growing concerns over stigma, affordability and limited access to professional support.

In a statement, mWell said the partnership will increase its network of certified mental health specialists, allowing more Filipinos to access qualified and culturally sensitive mental health care through its digital platform.

The company noted that mental health challenges remain underreported in the Philippines, where cultural factors and workplace concerns often discourage individuals from seeking help. It cited data showing that about 75 percent of Filipinos believe disclosing mental health concerns could affect their professional opportunities.
