About Us
Headway is building a new mental healthcare system, rewired for access and affordability.
We all know someone that has struggled with mental health – 1 in 4 people have a treatable mental health condition – but the overwhelming majority don’t get the care they need. The primary reason is cost – eighty percent of therapists don’t accept insurance, meaning paying for therapy is usually very, very expensive.
Headway is building the first national, virtual network of therapists who accept insurance, helping providers to expand their practices, and individuals to finally find a therapist they can afford. And we’re doing it all through software.
We launched in April of 2019 and are already powering thousands of therapy appointments every single day. To scale our mission, we’ve raised funding from the world’s preeminent VCs (backers of Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack, Uber, Oscar) as well as the nation’s most innovative healthcare entrepreneurs (founders of One Medical, Flatiron Health, and Clover Health).
We believe a team’s strength is in its people. Headway is solving a national problem of affordability, and we know this cannot be achieved without a team that reflects the diversity of this problem – across race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and experience.
Join us, and make an impact.
