When someone finally decides to seek behavioral health treatment — for themselves or a family member — the search itself becomes the obstacle. Fragmented directories, listings that went stale two years ago, and unanswered phone calls remain the norm across much of the industry. SAMHSA's 2024 National Survey on Drug Use and Health found that 18.2 percent of people aged 12 or older — 52.6 million — needed substance use treatment that year, while only about 10.2 million received any. Not knowing where to go, or who has availability right now, is a measurable part of that gap. Curivya, built and operated by MindWise Health, exists to close it from both sides: for the person looking for care, and for the facility trying to be found.
What Curivya Is — and What It Deliberately Is Not
Curivya is the consumer front door to behavioral healthcare. Someone can search treatment centers, providers, services and real-time inpatient bed availability, free of charge and without creating an account. Outpatient and inpatient listings are kept separate because they answer different questions: outpatient care is scheduled and the person returns home, while inpatient care means staying at the facility — which is why bed availability matters on one side and not the other.
What Curivya does not do is just as important for facilities to understand. It does not place referrals, does not act as an intermediary, and does not put anyone between your intake team and the family. The conversation about admission, insurance and cost happens directly between the person seeking care and your facility, exactly as it does today. Curivya's job is to make sure they are looking at an accurate listing when they pick up the phone. The full scope is spelled out on how Curivya works.
Search That Starts From a Sentence, Not a Taxonomy
Most directories ask the user to already know the vocabulary — outpatient, IOP, level of care — before the search can help them. That is a real barrier. Cognitive load and decision fatigue are elevated during a mental health or substance use crisis, and every term someone has to decode is another chance they abandon the search.
Curivya lets people describe what is actually happening in their own words and reads the search out of it: location, insurance, condition, level of care and urgency. Anyone who prefers to browse can still start from a state, a city or a specific service, and both paths land on the same listings. For a facility, the practical effect is that you are matched on what you actually treat rather than on whether a family guessed the right clinical term.
Bed Availability That Comes Out of Your Own Records
The most persistent failure in inpatient behavioral health is availability transparency. A family in crisis often has no reliable way to learn which facilities have an open placement without a series of calls that can take hours. Delays in placement during a crisis carry clinical consequences and are a well-documented contributor to emergency department crowding.
Curivya shows open-bed counts for inpatient facilities that record them — and it takes those counts from MindWise Health rather than from a directory maintained by hand. When your team updates a facility record in the platform, the listing reflects it. There is no second copy to keep in step and no separate directory login for someone to forget. That is the difference between availability data families can act on and the aspirational numbers most directories carry.
What Being Listed Actually Gets Your Facility
- Visibility to people searching by place and by service at the moment they are ready to call — not a passive browsing audience
- Open-bed counts that stay current because they come from the records your team already maintains
- Permanent links to your own Curivya pages, which your admin can find in MindWise Health under Guest Portal, ready to share or embed in your own website
- Links that do not rot: facility pages resolve by a stable identifier rather than by name, so renaming a facility or correcting an address redirects the old URL instead of breaking a page you already published
- Your organization's own logo and tagline on your Curivya pages, so the page reads as yours
- Appointment requests, intake, insurance details and consent forms that flow into the system your team already runs, through the MindWise client portal
- No listing fee
Your Own Branded Pages, Without Building Them
Every organization on Curivya gets a set of pages under its own branding — logo, tagline, and its own facilities and services. A multi-site organization or a regional network can hand out one consistent, always-current front door to its programs without standing up and maintaining that infrastructure separately, and without depending on whatever a general-purpose directory decided to print about it.
One point worth being precise about: those branded pages canonicalize to their national equivalents, so they are not a second search-engine property competing with your own website. The value is different and more durable — a controlled, accurate, embeddable page that reflects your services as they are configured today, which you can put in front of referral partners, discharge planners and families directly.
Why This Matters Right Now
Behavioral health demand has climbed sharply. The 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline and a broad shift in public willingness to seek help have both put more people into active search. Capacity has not kept pace: federal workforce projections put the 2037 shortfall at roughly 114,000 addiction counselors, 88,000 mental health counselors, 79,000 psychologists and 50,000 psychiatrists — and those figures are built on current utilization, so accounting for unmet need pushes them higher still.
When supply is that constrained, the efficiency of matching a person to an available program stops being a convenience and becomes a clinical and operational necessity. An open bed nobody can find is a scheduling problem for you and a much worse problem for the family that needed it yesterday. Curivya is aimed squarely at that structural inefficiency at the front end of care.
How to Get Your Facility Listed
Curivya lists treatment centers that run on MindWise Health, which is what keeps the directory current. If you are already a MindWise Health customer, your facilities may already be eligible to appear — get in touch and we will check your organization and walk through exactly what shows publicly before anything goes live.
If you are not on the platform yet, start with the listing form. You tell us about your organization, verify your work email, and MindWise Health sets up your organization and reaches out to finish onboarding. From there your dashboard is where you add facilities, services and bed availability — and those listings go live on Curivya free of charge.
Coverage today is concentrated in the Southeast, with outpatient listings across Alabama, Kentucky, South Carolina and Tennessee and inpatient bed availability live in Tennessee, and it expands as organizations onboard. In a field where the distance between needing care and receiving it is measured in phone calls, being accurately findable at that first moment is worth the ten minutes it takes to get set up.
