Where Mental Health Meets Tech: A New Era of Therapist Careers

We’re excited to share a major milestone for TherapyStack — the official launch of the first pillar of our vision: a job board for therapists specifically dedicated to mental health tech opportunities.

The Problem We’re Tackling

Therapists have one of the most emotionally demanding and chronically under-supported jobs in the healthcare system. Therapist burnout is real. Many clinicians juggle multiple part-time jobs or make frequent transitions between roles, all while searching for work that feels sustainable, mission-aligned, and well-compensated.

Unfortunately, mainstream job platforms haven’t evolved to meet the unique needs of therapists navigating today’s complex and shifting career landscape. Platforms like Indeed and LinkedIn are flooded with community mental health roles and ghost postings, often drowning out the innovative upstarts. These platforms are:

  • Too generalized to support therapist-specific search filters

  • Not designed to surface modern, non-traditional roles

  • Missing relevant mental health-specific profile data to connect therapists with the right employers

This all leads to a frustrating, time-consuming, and often fruitless job search.

Meanwhile: Mental Health Tech Is Booming

We’re in the midst of a mental health tech revolution. Over the last few years, the number of companies building innovative products to improve access to mental healthcare has exploded — from AI clinical tools like Tenor, to digital clinics like Allminds, to startup-led research initiatives like Slingshot AI. In fact, the mental health sector is experiencing a major resurgence in investment, signaling a market ripe for innovation. Yet many therapists aren’t even aware these opportunities exist, let alone that they are highly qualified for non-clinical and clinical roles within these organizations.

TherapyStack was built to bridge that gap.

Our Belief

Technology has long been one of the most powerful drivers of societal change. Today, companies across the globe are racing to harness the latest breakthroughs in AI — especially large language models — to reshape everything from healthcare to education. Mental health tech is no exception. But as these tools are built and deployed, we believe therapists shouldn’t just be along for the ride — they should be at the helm. Whether as clinicians, researchers, clinical strategists, or even founders and product leaders, therapists must have a seat at the table guiding the future of mental health.

What We’re Launching

We’ve just rolled out the TherapyStack Job Board — a centralized place to discover and explore jobs at:

  • Mental health tech companies

  • Digital health startups

  • Research orgs & think tanks

  • Pharmaceutical companies focused on mental and behavioral health

You won’t find traditional community mental health or private practice listings here — our focus is entirely on the future of mental health tech. We want to enable therapists to shape the technology and services that will make mental health care truly scalable and accessible.

You can:

  • Filter jobs by Job Type (Clinical, Operations, Clinical Leadership, etc.)

  • Browse by Title and Location

  • See key details up front: compensation, responsibilities, schedule, and job requirements

  • Get linked directly to the company’s official application page

We update our listings once a month, pulling from every company in our Mental Health Company Directory. Jobs also appear directly on company pages when available.

🚨 Coming Soon 🚨

Recognizing that therapists are often pressed for time, That’s why we’re soon launching personalized email alerts based on your preferences. You’ll be able to:

  • Set your role/location/job type filters once

  • Receive a monthly (or less) email only when a new match is added

  • Skip the spam. Stay in the loop.

Want Your Company’s Jobs Listed?

If you’re a mental health-focused startup or company and want your jobs featured, drop a link to your job board in the comments or send us a DM! We’ll review it for inclusion in our next update.

We’d Love Your Feedback

We’re building this for you. Let us know what you love, what you hate, and what you wish existed. And if you’re a therapist curious about working in tech, now’s the perfect time to explore.
