What this research uncovered
Anxiety's hidden impact
CuraLinc’s study found that most participants with clinical-level anxiety didn’t seek help for anxiety itself. Instead, they reached out for support with stress, relationships, or work-life concerns. Yet beneath the surface, anxiety was silently eroding their focus, energy, and performance—often alongside depression. Without early access to care, this kind of risk tends to go untreated until it affects everything else.

42% screened at risk for anxiety
Nearly half of CuraLinc participants had clinical-level anxiety—4x higher than average working adults.
79% didn’t seek help for anxiety
Most at-risk employees entered the program for other reasons, unaware of their anxiety symptoms.
No pattern by age, gender, or industry
Anxiety risk appeared consistently across demographics—making it a universal workforce issue.
Hidden mental health risks are costly—but solvable with the right model.
Most people don’t ask for help with anxiety—but they still need it.
This study reveals just how common—and overlooked—anxiety is in the workplace. It quietly affects focus, energy, and performance, even when employees don’t name it. CuraLinc’s model connects people to care that’s easy to access, clinically effective, and grounded in empathy. When employees feel supported, they show up stronger—for their teams, and for themselves.
