About Headway
Headway is revolutionizing the mental healthcare system in the United States by making it more accessible and affordable for everyone. Founded in 2019 and based in New York, Headway addresses the critical gap in mental health services by facilitating easier connections between patients and therapists. The company has developed a pioneering software-enabled network that allows therapists to accept health insurance, thereby reducing the cost barrier for patients seeking therapy.
What We Do
Headway's platform supports over 600,000 appointments each month, demonstrating its significant impact on mental health care accessibility. The company's innovative approach not only helps therapists to expand their practices but also ensures that patients can find quality care they can afford. This initiative is crucial as 1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, yet most do not receive the necessary care primarily due to financial constraints.
Our Culture and Values
At Headway, we believe that a diverse and inclusive team is fundamental to our success. We strive to create an environment that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve, including varied races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, ages, national origins, religions, family statuses, disabilities, military statuses, and experiences. Our commitment to diversity is not just about representation but also about bringing varied perspectives and ideas to tackle the complex issue of mental health care.
