Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Headlight is a mental health care provider that delivers talk therapy, medication management and interventional psychiatry through a network of licensed, accredited clinicians. Therapy sessions are offered both in person and virtually, and clinicians are described as trained in a range of therapeutic approaches. Medication management is positioned for patients with symptoms ranging from mild to severe, while interventional psychiatry uses targeted procedures intended to stimulate neural pathways for individuals with treatment-resistant depression. The company's service list also includes Spravato (esketamine) sessions.

Patient intake follows a three-step process: contacting the company, being matched with a clinician, and beginning treatment. Care coordinators handle questions and administrative paperwork, and the company offers a free mental health assessment. Headlight emphasizes clinician-patient matching, with individualized treatment plans built by the assigned clinician. Clinical focus areas listed include depression, anxiety and stress, trauma and grief, OCD, mood disorders, insomnia, phobias, relationships and family conflict, parenting, anger management, childhood trauma, chronic illness, body acceptance, and LGBTQIA+ concerns.
