Headway

Behind many mental health providers are lived experiences that shape why they show up for others. For Robert, breaking generational cycles meant learning to see vulnerability as a strength, not a weakness. Robert shares how his own history shaped the way he shows up for others, and why expanding access to care matters to him now more than ever. This is Purpose in practice.

This week at Behavioral Health Tech, our Chief Medical Officer Dr. Neha Chaudhary, MD joined Julie Seibert, Dr. Frank Webster, and Julia Isaacs for a panel moderated by Anastassia Gliadkovskaya exploring how scale can unlock a new standard of quality in mental health. The takeaway was clear: scale isn’t a tradeoff with quality, it’s what makes meaningful personalization, smarter insight, and continuous improvement possible. And when a diverse network of providers works alongside health plans and organizations like NCQA, shared learning can translate into clearer standards, faster action, and better outcomes at a population level. Headway is proud to be part of the work ahead — alongside partners who share our commitment to measuring what matters and improving care for millions.

How can scale become a catalyst for quality in behavioral health? Join us at Behavioral Health Tech 2025 for a panel about quality at scale, and how it can redefine what’s possible in mental health care. Headway’s Chief Medical Officer Neha Chaudhary, MD will join leaders from NCQA and health plans for a discussion moderated by Fierce Healthcare’s Anastassia Gliadkovskaya. They’ll explore how technology and collaboration can help us: → Rethink what “quality” truly means in behavioral health → Move from symptom tracking to goal-based care → Use scale to unlock new insights into access, equity, and outcomes Don’t miss the conversation, happening Wednesday, November 12th at 2:15pm in San Diego.  https://lnkd.in/gtFcTu2N 

I've been thinking a lot about what “quality” actually means in behavioral health. As both a psychiatrist and Chief Medical Officer at Headway, I see this tension every day: our industry often measures what’s easy (symptom reduction, utilization) instead of what matters (progress toward goals, daily functioning, lived experience). Making that shift requires the infrastructure to better understand — at scale — who we are serving and how we are serving them. Next week at Behavioral Health Tech 2025, I’ll be joining Julie Seibert, Julia Isaacs, and Dr. Frank Webster for a panel moderated by Anastassia Gliadkovskaya on how insights at scale can help us finally get this right — and redefine what quality can look like in behavioral health.

Each provider has a story. On World Mental Health Day tomorrow, we're shining a light on three therapists who have defied the odds to bring their best practices to life. #PurposeInPractice

Mental health providers are not just clinicians — they are storytellers of care, shaping the narrative of their practice each day. But how often do they pause to reflect on that story and the tools that bring it to life? This week, Lori Gottlieb — psychotherapist, New York Times bestselling author, and co-host of the “Dear Therapists” podcast — will join Headway for a live conversation on the power of narrative in therapy. The discussion will explore what it means for providers to intentionally shape their practice story, while honoring the unique experiences of the clients they serve. The event will also include an exclusive look at Headway’s expanded EHR, designed to streamline workflows, unblock providers’ time, and empower them to focus on what matters most: their clients.
