Lyra Health provides personalized, effective, and convenient mental healthcare services through self-help resources, therapy sessions, and evidence-based treatments grounded in science.
Lyra Health offers personalized mental healthcare services online or in-person for the full spectrum of mental health issues, including but not limited to stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and addiction. The platform can be used by adults, teens, children over the age of 2, couples, and families.
Upon signing up, every member will have to answer a few questions about themselves and their mental health concerns and goals. Based on the answers, a personalized care plan is created. The care plan may include one or more of the following:
What we like about Lyra Health is how they measure progress through clinically-validated assessments such as the PHQ-9, which measures the severity of depression in a patient, and the GAD-7, which is used to screen patients for anxiety disorders. Using tests like these allows them to track clinical improvement accurately and provide the right level of care.
While Lyra Health does not offer outpatient care, they have a concierge service that provides advanced care coordination by evaluating facilities and programs that provide evidence-based care, checking for bed availability in rehab centers, and supporting patients and dependants in whatever way possible.
They also provide work-life services beyond mental health in the form of free legal, financial, and ID theft consultations and support to fill up legal forms and file taxes. They also offer referrals and phone and online consultations for dependants.
You cannot use Lyra Health unless your employer has paid for it.

Lyra Health's co-founder and CEO, David Ebersman, believes that the biggest hurdle to mental healthcare isn't treatment, it's access. And thus, he left his job as Facebook's CFO in 2014 and created Lyra - a platform that made mental healthcare accessible, personalized, and effective.
Since its inception in 2014, Lyra Health has partnered with over 75 companies, including well-known brands like Pinterest and Starbucks, to offer comprehensive mental healthcare to their employees. They've also received accolades like the Forbes Best Product Healthcare Award 2020 and made it to Fast Company's list of the World's Most Innovative Companies 2020.
