Very few of those left accept any insurance at all, especially the military's.As a result, the most in-need people can't get help in the 1:1 model now, and millions more who struggle with more mild symptoms are totally left out. Swell is solving that.What makes us unique in addition to our target market is our full-circle approach to mental healthcare. We'll meet each person exactly where they are by combining totally new categories of self-guided preventative & early interventional mental health care with traditional 1:1 therapy in one platform.We launched our video therapy marketplace at our first base (Fort Campbell) in January of last year. Since then we've grown over ~12X, secured contracts with Tricare and Humana Military, and facilitated nearly 2000 therapy sessions with military families on our platform.Now, we're building out the proprietary self-guided side of our therapy app. This app uses behavioral psychology & AI and to help clients learn skills and frameworks for improving their relationships with themselves and others outside of a 1:1 session.About the RoleWe're a small startup (4 full time employees) with a team that's very passionate about mental health.
