Imagine . . .

You're a community health worker in rural America.

You’ve just graduated and you are the only mental health support for 5,000 people.

A teenager sits across from you and says:

"I can't get out of bed anymore. I keep thinking about that night . . . I don't think I can go on.”

A young woman with brown hair, wearing a gray t-shirt, is sitting on a purple leather couch with her hands pressed together in front of her lips, looking attentively at a person who is partially visible and speaking to her, against a brick wall background.

You know this matters.
You want to help. 
But you’ve had no real practice for moments like this.

The Hard Truth:

Therapeutic skills don’t come by having a degree, or a 2 week training.

These skills only develop after HUNDREDS of cases and supervision.

And yet, we ask frontline workers and new graduates to support entire communities . . .
without truly being able to practice conversations they’ll face on Day One.

This is happening everywhere.

Across states, hospitals, schools, refugee agencies, and rural clinics.

We’re not just facing a global shortage of 10 million mental health workers — we’re facing a chronic shortage of effective, evidence-based care.

Systems don’t just need more providers.
They need better-prepared providers.

But there hasn’t been a way to train both at scale.

Until now.

Meet EBT Sim.

AI Flight Simulator for Mental Health

Learners step into immersive, avatar-based role plays where they can safely practice the core skills of CETA Psychosocial Services — anytime, anywhere.

The system listens. It adapts. It challenges.
And it teaches and evaluates each step using validated, evidence-based criteria.

The result?
A confident frontline workforce ready to support low-severity cases and extend the reach of licensed clinicians.

This is how you finally scale access.

Deliver Standardized, Evidence-Based Care Across an Entire Region

Every learner practices the same steps. Every learner receives the same coaching. Every learner is evaluated by the same fidelity criteria validated across a decade of CETA research.
This is how you raise the floor, everywhere.
