At the heart of Lyra Health is a mission to transform access to life-changing mental health care. Founded in 2015 by David Ebersman, former CFO of Facebook and Genentech, Lyra was born out of the recognition that finding quality mental health care was a significant challenge. The company is built on the belief that everyone deserves to feel emotionally healthy and that mental health is a critical component of overall well-being. Lyra's culture is rooted in a set of core values that guide its operations and interactions. These include: 'Follow the science,' emphasizing a commitment to evidence-based practices and publishing results; 'Listen harder,' fostering better decision-making through seeking diverse opinions and genuine dialogue; and 'Look inwards,' encouraging the courage to self-reflect and embrace improvement. The value of 'Mind yourself' underscores the importance of nurturing personal well-being and practicing the skills taught to clients. 'Put clients first' is a central tenet, driving the team to work with purpose to make a tangible impact on those in need. Transparency is a hallmark of Lyra's culture, encapsulated in the value 'Show your cards,' which promotes sharing context. Finally, 'Tackle hard problems' reflects the company's willingness to embrace challenges that others might avoid.

Lyra strives to create a work environment where every employee feels seen, valued, and heard, fostering a sense of belonging across all historically marginalized employees. The company provides ongoing employee programs and benefits that support individual wellness and offers workshops, education, and growth opportunities to embed principles of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) into every aspect of its work. Lyra's approach combines technology with a human touch, utilizing an innovative digital care platform and a global network of providers to connect individuals with therapists, mental health coaches, and personalized medication prescribing. This model aims to make finding care easier, more personalized, and more effective, helping people recover faster. By partnering with leading employers, Lyra extends its reach to millions of individuals, offering them access to high-quality, evidence-based mental health support. The company is dedicated to breaking down barriers to mental health treatment and creating a world where mental well-being is prioritized and accessible to all.
