UpLift & BetterHelp – Redefining Access to Mental Healthcare
At UpLift, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health — and we're rethinking the mental healthcare model.
UpLift is a multi-sided marketplace, applying technology to empower patients to find Therapists and Psychiatric providers covered
by their insurance plan.
While 1 in 5 Americans struggle with mental health issues, only 40% of this group received care in the last year. At the same
time, only 30% of therapists accept insurance. UpLift acts as the bridge between patient, provider, and insurer — empowering
patients to find the best care for their needs at a price they can afford.
