Amae Health

Amae Health delivers precision medicine and integrated care for complex mental health conditions and severe mental illness (SMI), combining advanced science with clinical excellence in collaboration with academic medical centers like Cedars-Sinai, NewYork-Presbyterian, and Massachusetts General Hospital. Founded in 2022, the company now operates clinics across North Carolina, California, and New York. Its mission centers on a simple belief: high-quality psychiatric care should be a right, not a rarity.A Mission Born from LossAmae Health was founded by Sonia Garcia and Stas Sokolin after each navigated a family member's untreated SMI within a broken system. Rather than accept the status quo, they built the company they wished had existed. Its name comes from the Japanese term amae, describing humans' need to depend on and be cared for by others, an idea that now shapes how Amae treats every member who walks through its doors.Where Research Meets CareAmae Health treats SMI and complex mental health conditions by bridging clinical research with hands-on care, through an integrated team of psychiatrists, therapists, and health coaches. Clinicians draw on metabolic, genomic, and adaptive testing, tracking biometric and wearable data to build a precision medicine profile that guides each member's treatment. That care extends to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), individual and group therapy, peer support, and family sessions that include loved ones from the start.Building toward a CureBeyond individual treatment, Amae Health has launched the Amae Institute to advance research and provider education for SMI, working alongside clinical educators at Massachusetts General Hospital. The institute trains Amae clinicians in integrated care while contributing research on precision psychiatry. Amae's leadership relentlessly pursues what the field rarely names: a genuine cure for SMI, not just symptom management, a long-term view that guides how the company grows.
