We’re excited to announce that Centralive will be an exhibitor at the Society for Digital Mental Health (SDMH) Annual Virtual Conference 2026, taking place virtually on June 15 and 16, 2026. This is SDMH’s fifth annual gathering, and this year’s theme — Future Forward: Navigating Change in Digital Mental Health — could not be more timely.
If you’re attending, we’d love to connect. Stop by the Centralive booth in the Virtual Exhibit Hall, message us in advance, or simply say hello during the conference. Below, we share what to expect, how to register, and why this is one of the most important gatherings of the year for anyone working at the intersection of mental health and technology.
About SDMH 2026
The Society for Digital Mental Health is a multidisciplinary community working to advance the responsible use of digital tools in mental health care. Its Annual Virtual Conference brings together researchers, healthcare providers, payers, industry leaders, developers, patient advocates, regulatory organizations, and policy experts to share cutting-edge research and practical lessons for shaping the future of the field.
This year’s theme — Future Forward: Navigating Change in Digital Mental Health — speaks to a field in motion. According to the SDMH, the 2026 program is designed to explore what comes next in a time of rapid technological shifts, evolving policy and regulatory landscapes, and the complex effects of AI and social media on mental health care, highlighting both the opportunities and the real-world challenges of advancing accessible, equitable, and evidence-based digital mental health care.
What to Expect
The two-day virtual program will feature a mix of formats designed to fit the way people actually want to learn and connect:
- Flash talks (5 minutes each) — fast-paced presentations on cutting-edge work. The conference is welcoming submissions on any topic tied to digital mental health, with priority given to innovative approaches in therapy, substance use, and screening and diagnostics that address the needs of diverse, underserved, or low-income populations.
- Posters — deeper dives into research and practice across the field.
- Ask Me Anything (AMA) sessions — Reddit-style live conversations with experts.
- Networking opportunities — connect directly with peers, mentors, and potential collaborators.
- Special events for students and trainees — focused programming for the next generation of digital mental health leaders.
- The Virtual Exhibit Hall — where organizations like Centralive showcase their work directly to attendees through 20-minute demos and live Q&A.
Why We’re Excited to Be Part of It
Digital mental health is at an inflection point. The tools have matured. The evidence is accumulating. The questions facing the field are no longer about whether technology belongs in mental health care, but about how to deploy it responsibly, equitably, and at scale.
SDMH is one of the few venues where that conversation happens across every stakeholder group at once — clinicians, researchers, technologists, payers, patients, and policymakers in the same virtual room. For Centralive, being part of the exhibitor community at SDMH 2026 is a chance to learn from that conversation and contribute to it.
