Founded in 2019, headway operates a technology platform that manages both sides of the mental healthcare supply chain. Over 60,000 mental healthcare providers use its practice management software to run their operations, while more than 1 million patients have used its patient-facing platform to search for therapists and navigate insurance coverage for care.
The company addresses a structural problem in American mental healthcare: most therapists do not accept insurance, making therapy financially inaccessible for many. headway's core offering integrates insurance payment processing with therapist-matching tools, reducing friction for both providers and patients. Its network spans all 50 U.S. states.
headway has raised over $325 million in Series D funding. The company positions itself as focused on the practical work of making therapy accessible to those who need it, maintaining operational practices aligned with early-stage ventures despite its scale.
