Progressive Launches States of Mind: Transforming Mental Health Care in Europe

Revolutionizing Mental Health Care in Europe with States of Mind

On September 19, 2025, a groundbreaking initiative named States of Mind launches in Europe, aiming to transform mental health care for the one in six individuals affected by mental health conditions across the EU. This digital hub is designed to facilitate access to innovative treatments, including psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, ketamine infusions, and transcranial magnetic stimulation. The platform serves as a comprehensive directory, connecting patients with clinics, therapists, and digital health services while simultaneously offering educational resources on evidence-based therapies. Co-founder and Chief Product Officer Roman Romanov underscores that States of Mind is not merely a directory, but a robust support system that empowers mental health providers with essential digital infrastructure to enhance service delivery.

The platform addresses a pressing need in the mental health landscape: the challenge many eligible patients face in finding reliable information and resources. By offering pre-treatment support that includes educational content and peer support, States of Mind prepares clients for their therapeutic journeys. The incorporation of pre-screening tools such as the PHQ-9 and GAD-7 allows patients to identify appropriate therapies tailored to specific conditions, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD. This matching process is designed to respect patient privacy while ensuring adherence to clinical standards, positioning the platform as a trustworthy resource in the mental health ecosystem.

In addition to its directory, States of Mind features an editorial hub that publishes evidence-based articles, patient stories, and expert insights, aiming to combat stigma and broaden access to care. By inviting clinics and health innovators to participate, the initiative emphasizes transparency, accessibility, and harm reduction, heralding a much-needed transformation in mental healthcare. Furthermore, the platform is in the process of establishing an adverse events taxonomy and registry to enhance industry standards, demonstrating a commitment to safety and accountability in mental health treatment. Supported by Pink Elephant, a venture builder dedicated to promoting scalable telemedicine and educational models, States of Mind is poised to redefine the future of mental health care in Europe.

In a significant move, applications for the Providers Directory are currently open, encouraging practitioners to join in this innovative approach to mental healthcare. By fostering collaboration among mental health providers, States of Mind not only seeks to improve access to progressive treatments but also aims to create a comprehensive support network that benefits both patients and providers alike. As the platform continues to grow, its potential to reshape mental health care in Europe becomes increasingly evident.
