Who We Are We all walk around with an invisible backpack. It carries our emotional experiences, traumas, and unresolved feelings. Similar to a physical backpack, it can become heavy and burdensome when filled with too many items. We created Backpack Healthcare to help lighten the load. At Backpack Healthcare, we're re‑imagining mental health care for children, teens, and young adults. As a clinician‑led, minority‑owned company, our mission is simple: when clinicians thrive, kids thrive. At Backpack Healthcare, we're not just offering a job—we're offering purpose, flexibility, and the chance to change lives every day. If you're ready to be part of a collaborative, empowering, and innovative mental health movement, join our team and make a real impact by breaking barriers and healing young minds.
