MISSION VIEJO, Calif., Sept. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MYnd Analytics, Inc. MYND, a market leader in improving the delivery of mental health through the combination of telemedicine and data analytics/augmented intelligence, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Arcadian Telepsychiatry Services LLC, has expanded its relationship with Claremont Behavioral Services Inc, a leading provider of Employee Assistance Programs (EAP).  Under the new agreement, Arcadian will provide Claremont's members and employees outside of California with nationwide services through its provider network following a successful pilot program.

Claremont was founded in 1990 and is headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area. Its customers include transportation agencies, municipalities, labor groups, high tech firms, education, retail and more. Claremont currently serves over 300,000 members, representing over 200 employers across the United States.

Dr. Tom Farris, President of Claremont, commented, "Offering our EAP clients the option of video-based counseling is an essential part of our service.  Although many of our customers are based in California, we support employees across the U.S.  We needed a 50-state network of video-enabled EAP clinicians, but developing this on our own was not practical.  Arcadian has been an ideal solution.  We have been very pleased with the clinical work provided on our behalf and have found the referral process to be simple and efficient."

Robert Plotkin, CEO and Founder of Arcadian, stated, "This expansion of our services with Claremont following a successful pilot program further illustrates the importance of telepsychiatry services, the quality of our services and the scalability of our platform.  We look forward rolling out these services nationwide in the coming months."
