"I wasn’t positive if what I had was depression, but I knew I wanted to feel better. Brightside made it easy to figure out what was going on and get treatment that could help."

Why we're doing this

Depression affects 1 in 5 Americans. About 80% of them can get better with treatment.

Only half of people with depression seek care because many of them are embarrassed, uncomfortable, or unsure.

People who do seek care for depression wait an average of 4 years and only a fraction receive treatment consistent with clinical best practices.

We need to do better

Brightside’s mission is to help people lead healthy, grounded, and productive lives by making it easy to access the highest quality depression care.

Who we are

We founded Brightside because we’ve all seen depression up close - either through experiencing it ourselves or helping someone we love. We bring over 30 years of experience in medicine, public health, and health technology to achieve our single goal: Delivering effective depression care to everyone who needs it.
