What MiResource does

MiResource is a mental health care marketplace and referral platform founded in 2017 and headquartered in Foster City (San Mateo), California. The company operates a directory and matching service that helps individuals find mental health providers by condition, provider type, treatment modality, insurance coverage, and visit setting (in-person, remote, treatment centers, and group therapy). Its core technology is a marketplace platform with a vetted provider directory, insurance compatibility checker, guided "Get Matched" search, and a Learning Center of educational content. Distribution is hybrid: a self-serve patient-facing product for direct consumer search, and partnership-driven enterprise channels through 70+ university and college counseling centers (supported by 600+ case managers) and a January 2026 integration with Findhelp that surfaces MiResource's network to health systems, payers, public agencies, and educational institutions via a unified behavioral-health and social-care referral workflow.

The business model combines marketplace economics with provider-side monetization. Patients access the directory at no cost (freemium); the company generates revenue from marketplace commissions or referral transaction fees and from premium provider profiles that offer enhanced visibility. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Customer segments split between individual patients (primary) and institutional buyers including higher-education counseling centers and, increasingly, health systems and payers via Findhelp. Notable named institutional customers include University of Miami, San Diego State University, Florida State University, Arizona State University, North Carolina State University, and University of Virginia.

The company has raised $3 million in seed funding (August 2021), led by Draper Associates and Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas, with participation from Garage Capital, Labor Capital, One Mind Brain Health Impact Fund, Royal Street Ventures, and What If Ventures. No subsequent funding rounds, acquisitions, or major leadership changes are disclosed. CEO Mackenzie Drazan leads the company. Operating status is active as of 2026 with no IPO or exit signals identified.

Direct peers

• Psychology Today: Long-established therapist directory used by individuals searching for mental health providers by condition, insurance, and location. Directly comparable to MiResource's core 'Find a Therapist' directory and matching functionality, with significantly larger scale but lower-vetted listings.
• Headway: Mental health marketplace that connects patients with therapists and handles insurance billing and provider credentialing. Comparable to MiResource as a two-sided mental health platform focused on improving insurance-compatible access to therapy, with a more provider-onboarding-heavy model.
• Alma: Network for therapists and mental health providers that supports credentialing, insurance billing, and a client matching experience. Directly comparable as an invite-based mental health provider network with curated access, similar to MiResource's vetted-directory positioning.
• Grow Therapy: Online marketplace that matches individuals with therapists and handles insurance eligibility and billing. Directly comparable two-sided mental health marketplace competing for the same provider and patient supply as MiResource.
• SonderMind: Mental health provider network that matches clients with therapists and handles insurance and credentialing. Directly comparable two-sided platform targeting high-quality, vetted provider supply in behavioral health.
• Findhelp (formerly Aunt Bertha): Social care and behavioral health referral platform used by health systems, payers, and public agencies. Now an integration partner of MiResource; comparable as a referral and tracking layer serving similar enterprise buyers, with a broader social-care scope.

Broad incumbents

• Zocdoc: Broad healthcare provider booking platform across many specialties including mental health. Comparable as a directory and scheduling layer, though it spans all of medicine rather than specializing in behavioral health curation and vetting like MiResource.

Emerging players

• Lyra Health: Employer- and payer-sponsored mental health platform offering therapy, coaching, and psychiatry through a curated provider network. Comparable as a vetted-network mental health referral solution, though distribution is employer-sponsored rather than university- or direct-to-consumer-focused like MiResource.
• Mantra Health: Digital mental health platform focused on college and university students, connecting campuses with therapy and psychiatry services. Highly comparable to MiResource's university-channel wedge and the same higher-ed buyer segment.
• Uwill: Student mental health and telehealth platform that partners with colleges to deliver counseling and crisis support. Directly comparable higher-ed mental health referral and care-delivery partner serving the same university counseling center buyer as MiResource.
