When I joined Headstrong in 2018, I understood the stakes of this mission. I had served three years as a Naval aviator before an injury forced me to medically retire. I knew that I would only join Headstrong if they provided the highest levels of care.

Immediately, I saw how determined they were to deliver to that standard. Headstrong puts every prospective clinician through a rigorous vetting process, with extensive interviews, letters of recommendation, professional certification checks, and more.

That commitment to excellence assures our clients that they will be matched with qualified clinicians who will give them the best possible chance of recovery.
