Dr. Kirstin Aschbacher was very helpful in helping Meru Health build market differentiation, as one of the only digital mental health companies to integrate a wearable device and an empirically-supported mind-body treatment component: Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback (HRVB). While working as our Senior Director of Health Data Science, Dr. Aschbacher led the implementation of this mind-body intervention, embedded within Meru’s digital mental health program, to help participants build stress-resilience and nervous system training. Her team helped build and deploy a stack of AI/ML algorithms, new UX content videos, a behavior change strategy, and provider training materials that improved the patient to provider ratio. Ultimately, Dr. Aschbacher created a science-backed sales deck around HRVB, which contributed to a multimillion dollar deal and helped identify new target populations. I recommend her consulting services to anyone in the digital health space seeking to improve the reach and impact of their product.
