Three stars in the acting industry have collaborated to build a company that’s all about helping people to get affordable access to mental health services in the country.
Nadine Lustre together with Liza Soberano and Yassi Pressman has built the company ‘Mind You’ to help break the stigma of mental health problems to Filipinos.

During a live interview with Christine Jacod on CNN last November 11, Lustre explained what the platform they have been working on, “It is a platform. It’s for mental health. The easiest way to describe it is that it is a platform that will make therapists or psychologists or psychiatrists easier to access and make it much [cheaper].”
“Now, here in the Philippines, mental health here is such a huge problem just because it is not widely talked about. There is still a stigma when it comes to mental health… We are doing our best to try to normalize it and pretty much tell everyone this is a normal thing. You can call or talk to someone and help you with what it is you are going through. We are still working on it but I’m really, really excited about Mind You,” Lustre added.
Nadine, Liza, and Yassi have long been associated with their advocacies and have been vocal about ending the stigma brought with mental illness, and now is the time that they’re building a space where people may find peace of mind.
