Built From Personal Experience
HealthNest was founded by Dr. Amara Okafor in 2022 after she witnessed first-hand how difficult it was for people to access consistent, quality mental health care through conventional channels. Waiting lists, high costs, and the stigma around seeking help were real barriers.
She assembled a team of clinicians and technologists to create something different: a platform that meets people where they are, combines human expertise with AI-powered support, and removes the friction that stops people from getting help.
Today, HealthNest supports thousands of people across the UK, partnering with NHS trusts, private practices, and leading employers to deliver mental health care that actually works.
