Grow Therapy is on a mission to serve as the trusted partner for therapists growing their practice, and patients accessing high-quality care.

Since launching in February 2021, we’ve empowered more than ten thousand therapists and hundreds of thousands of clients across the country and insurance landscape. We’ve raised more than $178mm of funding from Sequoia Capital, Transformation Capital, TCV, SignalFire, and others.
