As National Suicide Prevention and Awareness Month continues, Construction Executive reached out to Counslr, a text-based support app that is making inroads in many industries, including construction. Founded in 2019, just prior to COVID-19, Counslr's founders saw a real need for a simpler, more approachable, more accessible mental-health-support solution.

Today, Counslr works across the country in multiple industries, serving tens of thousands of people via its network of licensed counselors. This is what one of those counselors—Naomi Angoff Chedd, Counslr's director of counselor support services—had to say about her work with clients in the construction industry.
