Join a team that’s transforming mental healthcare. Founded by psychiatrists, Headlight is more than a company: it’s a movement. A movement on the front lines of the mental health crisis, transforming how people access care and how clinicians deliver it. We are transparent about our capabilities, treatments, and coverage, champion innovation, and leverage our data to continuously improve care. Our mission is to improve lives, one session at a time.

Our clinical team enjoys autonomy and institutional support to focus on improving patient outcomes, and to affect the system as a whole by elevating standards of care beyond private practice.

As the most trusted behavioral health partner in the Western U.S., we have deep relationships that enable unparalleled access, interoperability, and first-priority referrals. This exclusivity, combined with best-in-class coordinated care and feedback loops, yields superior outcomes and cost savings.

We believe human-to-human relationships are indispensable, so from match to session to the time between sessions, we provide whole-person care so nobody falls through the cracks and there is a brighter path forward for all.
