Introducing APA Labs

Where Psychology, Technology, and Innovation Converge.

APA Labs, backed by American Psychological Association Services Inc. (APASI), was created to accelerate innovation at the intersection of psychology, technology, and mental health. Our mission is to strengthen the digital mental health ecosystem by identifying what works, improving what doesn’t, and helping build what’s missing.

Why APA Labs? 

Because solving the mental health crisis requires more than good intentions — it demands deep expertise, bold thinking, and trusted collaboration.


By uniting psychologists, founders, investors, researchers, payers, health systems, and policymakers—we accelerate access to ethical, evidence-based digital mental and behavioral health technology.


Through collaboration, research, and evaluation, APA Labs helps:

  • Psychologists integrate technologies that complement their workflows and improve outcomes.
  • Founders strengthen clinical validation and product–market fit.
  • Investors identify products with scientific rigor and long-term viability.
  • Payers, health systems, and policymakers adopt solutions aligned with ethical, effective, and scalable care.


Together, we’re building a future where behavioral health innovation is guided by science, grounded in trust, and driven by collaboration.
