About the job
At Headway, we're on a mission to revolutionize mental healthcare by creating an accessible system for everyone. Our innovative technology empowers individuals to find exceptional therapists through the first software-enabled national network of providers who accept insurance.
With 1 in 4 Americans experiencing a treatable mental health condition, the lack of insurance acceptance by many providers can make therapy prohibitively expensive. Headway is dedicated to building a mental healthcare system that everyone can access by facilitating therapists in accepting insurance and scaling their practices.
Founded in 2019, Headway has rapidly evolved into a diverse national network of over 60,000 mental healthcare providers across all 50 states, utilizing our software to serve more than 1 million patients. We are a Series D company, having raised over $325 million from notable investors including a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Accel, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Thrive Capital, Forerunner Ventures, and Health Care Service Corporation.
We aim for your time at Headway to be the most meaningful experience of your career. Join us in transforming mental healthcare for the better.
