About Prosper Health

Prosper Health is on a mission to make life happier and healthier for autistic and neurodivergent adults. Despite autism diagnoses increasing more than 5x in the past 25 years, autistic adults have been systematically overlooked, leading to poor outcomes, including high rates of co-occurring mental health conditions and lower life expectancy. Prosper delivers specialized mental health services for autistic adults, covered by insurance. We’ve helped tens of thousands of people receive an autism diagnosis for the first time, work with neurodivergent-affirming therapists, and find belonging through community. Our outcomes meaningfully outperform traditional care, with substantially greater improvements in mood, anxiety, and quality of life.

Prosper is growing 3x year over year, with mid-double-digit millions in run-rate revenue, thousands of active clients, and 400+ clinicians. We’re a high-ownership, mission-driven team building something that has never existed for autistic and neurodivergent adults.

Our culture blends thoughtfulness, kindness, and high performance. We set ambitious goals and hold ourselves accountable while integrating perspectives from experts, including clinicians and autistic self-advocates. Team members come from organizations like Bain, McKinsey, BCG, FirstHand Health, Rula, SeatGeek, and Benchling, as well as schools like Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Yale, Penn, Dartmouth, Northwestern, and Vanderbilt.

Here are a few of our favorite operating principles:

• Clients first: Solve real problems for our clients, even if it’s harder for us. Never lose sight of the person on the other side.
• Find a Way: Use ingenuity, scrappiness, and determination to bend the world to accomplish our goals.
• Raise the Bar: Grow deliberately by asking how things can improve and giving and seeking feedback.
• Be a Good Person: Be kind, honest, and make it fun to work here. Treat people with respect and go out of your way to do nice things for your teammates.
