Bloomwell

The problem

People who ask for mental-health support wait months for a first appointment, and many give up before it comes.

Bloomwell matches each person with a licensed therapist within three days and runs sessions by video, with exercises between them.

Who it's for

Adults seeking therapy, and the employers and insurers who pay for it.
