"At Tri-State, our membership and employees cover four states across the rural West. After hearing Nathaan's impactful keynote at Colorado Ad Day, I wanted to bring him into our company as a Keynote for our Communications and Member Services Conference. I was a blown away by how his presentation resinated with our members. I watched as one-after-one they came up after his talk to ask about resources, share their stories or show their gratitude. We are now looking into how we can empower our employees and members with the available tools Nathaan has recommended–helping to support mental health and our overarching Well Being initiative. Thank you!!!"

"Nathaan is one of those rare people who both has a deep understanding of psychology AND how to build tech products. There is a subtlety to building mental health and wellbeing products as behavior change does not always follow an obvious and linear path and this is where Nathaan shines. As advisor and later board member at LiveBetter Nathaan has been instrumental in helping us build our products which have now reached over 100,000 people globally. Nathaan helped us figure out not only how to maximize the wellbeing impact of our products by helping us ensure the clinical validity of our product features, but also how to design better product interactions to make our apps better. To top it all off Nathaan is a wonderful human who is eternally positive, supportive, and just fun to work with. I highly recommend Nathaan."

When I first came to Nathaan I had only a dream idea and zero knowledge of where or how to start. It was his expertise that supported me went through the fundraising process, finding the right partnership, developing a strategy, and creating science-based and user-centered content. 6 months later, I’m getting close to releasing my first prototype. Among all the funds I allocated to my project, the money I spent on consulting with him offered the highest return in value. Nathaan is truly my “crutches” and gatekeeper during my journey to turn an idea into a reality

We worked with Nathaan as a psychological advisor for the update of our narrative therapy based mental health game, Shadow’s Edge. He supported us to re-align the psychological process with the new storyline that we released in 2022. Nathaan’s input on the psychological model and into the re-design of the writing prompts came directly from his practice of working with teens. Nathaan provided practical and implementable advice, concrete examples, and brings a great mix of psychological knowledge, empathy for youth, and creativity to the table.
