EOI is the premier institution addressing the intersection of serious illness and mental health.

Without mental health there can be no true physical health
— Dr. Brock Chisholm in 1954; the first Director-General of the World Health Organization

The psychological burden of living with serious illness or rare disease is both profound and distinct. EOI facilitates the growth and delivery of best-practice mental health care services for patients and families facing rare disease and chronic and serious illness.

We develop bespoke mental health interventions that are tailored to the lived experience of life with serious illness and rare disease.

We partner with academic institutions, hospital systems, nonprofit organizations, and pharmaceutical companies to build gold-standard wellbeing resources for patient groups.
