GreyMatter Capital

GreyMatter is a venture capital firm created to support bold founders building the future of mental health and emotional wellness. We believe innovative approaches to mental wellbeing have the power to not only reshape healthcare, but to touch every part of our lives, improving the way we live, work, learn, relate to one another. 

Our team has decades of experience investing in, building, and advising companies at the intersection of mental health and technology. We have built a network of advisors which includes many of the most successful behavioral health company founders alongside world-class clinicians, researchers, technologists, policy advocates, and healthcare executives: this includes the former head of the National Institute of Mental Health, the former CEO of Optum Behavioral Health, and the congressman who co-authored the Mental Health Parity Act.

Through our community of luminary advisors, existing mental health founders, and scientific experts, we help founders identify the most promising areas of research and technological opportunity, provide access to playbooks and data to shape their strategy, support with critical hires, help close deals with customers, and provide specialized guidance and capital along the way. Our platform serves all stakeholders in the innovation space including builders, payors, and funders.

To advance this goal, we are backing the most talented founders in the earliest stages of their journeys in building category defining companies that tackle mental and behavioral health challenges. Our goal is to bring together entrepreneurs, academics, scientists, policy makers and capital partners to collectively drive innovation in our space.

If you are passionate about changing mental health, we are excited to hear from you.

The cycle of good lifelong mental health starts with healthy mothers! Today GreyMatter is announcing our investment in a new company in the maternal mental health space — FamilyWell Health. 

FamilyWell Health, a tech-enabled behavioral health company that integrates specialized mental health services including coaching, therapy, and psychiatry into OB/GYN practices. FamilyWell’s comprehensive program includes in-person and virtual care and an on-demand text support line with live peer coaches for accessible emotional support. By leveraging the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM), FamilyWell utilizes evidence-based care proven to decrease depressive symptoms by at least 50%, reduces health disparities, and improves access to care, all while lowering the overall cost of care.
 
Founder Jessica (Schiffman) Gaulton MD, MPH has a clinical background and lived experience with perinatal behavioral health issues and has recruited a team dedication to this space. 

After proving its model with its first three clinics with strong economics, the  seed round in collaboration with .406 Ventures & @Mother Ventures will help catalyze national expansion.

At GreyMatter, we’ve been closely watching the Medicaid value-based provider enablement space and have observed a few major trends leading to what we believe is a unique opportunity: 
1. Governments are looking for ways to reduce the cost of care among Medicaid patients. 
2. Payors increasing their appetite to partner with Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs).
3. CMS is mandating all Medicare and Medicaid programs and providers move to value-based care by 2030.

When we met Cesar Herrera, Carmelo Cruz Reyes, Janel S. and Stephanie Hudson, DipWSET at Yuvo Health, we were excited about their approach for powering FQHCs to better scale and support care for low-income communities. The platform includes shared technology, contracting, and infrastructure to arm FQHCs with better population health tools. With behavioral health as one of the core cost-drivers for this population, Yuvo’s approach not only improves access and quality, but supports FQHCs in their value-based care journey.

Today, we’re excited to announce our partnership with the Yuvo team as part of their most recent funding round. Learn more about the company and mission at Yuvohealth.com and check out their open roles here: https://lnkd.in/d2_-JZE4
