I guess if I was in your position I’d consider running a pilot of the service (using as-similar-a-method-as-possible) in a demographic that is seen as desirable to the health industrial complex (New York or California or something). Perhaps I’d also talk to an intellectual property lawyer and see if there are any elements of your method that can be subject to protections (patents, copyright material or whatever).
If it’s so impactful and cost-effective it might be immediately profitable if offered to other demographics (including because market-provided mental health services seem hugely expensive in many western countries—it’s possible that this model could undercut the market dramatically).
Thanks for the reply Sean.
