Cartwheel is a mental health partner for schools. Cartwheel helps kids and families experiencing difficulties and assists schools in implementing Multi-Tiered Systems of Support to identify and help struggling students early.

Cartwheel

We believe that kids shouldn’t just aspire to get out of bed and drag themselves to class. They should be able to experience joy. They deserve to envision and build a life they’re excited to live. 

Cartwheel is the trusted mental health partner to schools. We deliver rapid access to care for students and help schools build stronger mental health programs that catch kids before they fall.



"Cartwheel offers vital, timely support for our local youth. Despite exceptional local mental health providers, students face long waits for help. No one wants students with deep sadness or anxiety turned away or to have to wait months to see a therapist. Every child deserves prompt support, and Cartwheel can provide the timely high-quality support our youth urgently need.” 

- Amy Fox Anyanwu, Assistant Superintendent, Montgomery County Educational Service Center 

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the share of high school students feeling persistently sad or hopeless increased by 40% over the last decade. Getting timely access to mental health can have a dramatic impact on student outcomes. 

Within the first few weeks of our partnership with the Montgomery County Educational Service Center, more than 50 students were referred for services and offered appointments with a licensed therapist with no waitlist!

I wanted to take a moment to reflect on my first 90 days at Cartwheel (which was June 28th!). It's been an incredible journey so far, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to work with such a talented and supportive team, all guided by human values.

I'm grateful for the leadership and vision of our team, including Joe English, Juliana H. Chen, MD, Daniel Tartakovsky and Julie Jungman who have created a culture that truly makes a difference. They have been instrumental in helping me grow and learn, and I appreciate their belief in me. 

In my first 90 days, I've had the privilege of:

✨Contributing to process improvements that enhance our impact on clinical support and operational efficiency

✨Developing strategies to support our growing clinical team

✨Organizing a historic company-wide virtual retreat

✨Building life-long connections with some amazing humans 

Additionally, I want to extend my gratitude to several individuals who have made a significant impact on my journey so far. To my clinical manager team, Bridget Ormond, LCSW and Jessica Nielsen, LICSW thank you for your guidance and support. To Evan Jon (EJ) Gennrich thank you for being a collaborative and operational-minded partner. And to my amazing team of clinicians and cross-functional partners, thank you for your dedication, passion, and collaboration! 

Here's to many more milestones and accomplishments in the next 90 days and beyond!

In 2022, I worked with Vivek Murthy to help write the Surgeon General’s Advisory on youth mental health. Today, my company, Cartwheel, serves more than 100 school districts on the frontlines of the mental health crisis. 

During my time in government and over the past two years working with schools, students, and families, I’ve seen firsthand how social media can impact kids and teens and what we can do about it. 

The Surgeon General’s warning outlined in the below op-ed is a serious and worthwhile idea to consider — and will take time to implement. What can we do in the meantime? 

I was really excited to see Dr. Murthy to also call for schools to “ensure that classroom learning and social time are phone-free experiences.”  Limiting phones during the school day is a practical, common sense step that more and more schools and parents are embracing. 

I'm a strong advocate for expanded mental health services in schools, but ADDING new programs isn't the only answer. Sometimes taking things AWAY — like phones — can also help. 

I’d be curious to hear from any school leaders or parents who have limited phone use on their campuses or at home. What’s working? What’s not working? What lessons have you learned that others should know? What you do think about the Surgeon General's message?

Excited to share we've joined over 60 EdTech organizations to ensure the safe, accountable, fair, and effective (SAFE) proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) within our product and across the industry. Keeping student personal health information (PHI) and district data secure and private is essential to upholding our promise as a trusted mental health provider to our partners.

Follow the EDSAFE AI Alliance, read the press release, and keep an eye out for more information on this timely initiative.

Feeling grateful today to the Cartwheel team and to our school partners. We recently surveyed more than 1,000 school counselors and staff to get feedback on their experience with some of our new features and processes, and here are a few comments we received:

"I have really appreciated how responsive Cartwheel has been to feedback from our school based staff. I also applaud the new online portal - approving referrals and tracking where students are in the process has been so helpful! - Psychologist and Administrator at Acton Boxborough Regional School District in MA 

"The efficiency and ease of the process and portal and the quality of the therapists have been beyond impressive."  - Social worker at Stoneham Public Schools in MA

"I appreciate the communication. It is helpful to know the progress/status of the referral. Knowing when a student starts services helps us create a plan of support in the building." - Social worker at Bloomington Public Schools District 87 in Illinois

"The referral process is super easy and straightfoward. The platform is user friendly and intuitive and Stacy Swasey has been amazing to work with. She is super responsive and always very helpful. We have received great feedback from our students about the quality of care as well." - Counselor at Millbury Junior/Senior High School in MA

"Referral process is super easy, the platform is user friendly and easy to navigate, love seeing the communication details in the platform, outreach to families happens quickly, Cartwheel is very inclusive and thoughtful of client's identity and needs/preferences." - Counselor at Beverly Public Schools in MA

"Cartwheel is very responsive and quick with our referrals and their collaboration with me has been really helpful to best support our students." - School-based clinician at Prospect Hill Academy Charter School in MA

"All of my students working with Cartwheel are satisfied with their care. Students get matched quickly and receive care within a week or two of referral, which is huge...We have another referral service that takes a bit longer and doesn't seem to have the match rate that Cartwheel has." - Counselor at Methuen Public Schools in MA
 
"The counselors have reached out to me and are really invested in what I have seen in the student, they trust my analysis of the student's needs." - Counselor in MIAMISBURG CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT in Ohio 

"While we are just starting out with Cartwheel, I have been very impressed with the support we have received and I appreciate the communication with our program manager." - Administrator at Brookville Local Schools in Ohio

"I appreciate the responsiveness to my questions; ability to track status; connecting a therapist with my student." - Social worker at North Shore School District 112 in Illinois
 
"Cartwheel is very responsive to our district's needs. This is especially true in their ability to find quality therapists who are multilingual." - Administrator at Salem Public Schools in MA
