While competition between mental health startups is fierce, Tava's primary focus on employers and employees should help it to stand out. By partnering with employers and insurers, the platform is able to pair its users with certified therapists for online consultations at no charge and with little fuss, as it bills the employer or insurer directly.

Still a relatively young company, Tava Health has been steadily expanding its network of therapists to cover every US state. It has also grown its headcount and partner network, and looks to secure yet more partnerships in the future than will help it to connect more people to the services they need.
