About Tend Health
A team at the intersection of heart and mind
Our Team
Dedicated. Passionate. Experienced.
We bring together an exceptional team of clinicians at the intersection of clinical care, health professions, and technology. Our background in health professions training and experience in healthcare unites us as a group with a deep understanding of the honor and responsibility of being a health professional.
Our collective experiences of the barriers for healthcare providers to access mental health support fuel our desire to create a system that eliminates those barriers.
We strive to create a world where all healthcare providers have access to exceptional mental health support and to create an organization where everyone has a deep passion for impacting that mission.

About the Founders
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
― Maya Angelou
Why We Exist
The need. The experience of becoming a healthcare professional and the day-to-day events are laden with responsibility, uncertainty, crisis, loss, and creating space for their patients’ needs. These experiences can have a lasting impact on mental health that compounds over time.
A time of crisis. Conceived during the COVID-19 pandemic, Tend Health is an antidote to the mental health burdens plaguing health professionals.
Current state is inadequate. Organizations offer and pay health insurance, yet there are many barriers to accessing this care. Health professionals often pay out-of-pocket for mental health due to concerns regarding licensure and credentialing. Current models focus on pathology, lack flexibility, access, and expertise in caring for health professionals.
Reducing barriers. Tend Health directly minimizes barriers and increases access using technology and innovative delivery models.
