Today I’m interviewing Christine Li, the founder of Mentaya, a platform designed to simplify the process of out-of-network billing for mental health services. Christine shares her journey from working in tech at Google to launching Mentaya, driven by her passion for mental health and the desire to create a more accessible system for both providers and clients. The discussion covers the importance of understanding out-of-network benefits, the features of the Mentaya platform, and how it helps therapists and clients navigate the complexities of insurance claims. The conversation also highlights success stories from practices that have effectively utilized the platform, addresses challenges with specific insurance providers, and compares Mentaya with competitors in the market.

About Christine Li
Christine Li, founder and CEO of Mentaya, is driven by a commitment to mental health and a deep belief in empowering therapists. She started Mentaya to tackle the headaches of out-of-network billing, making it easier for therapists to collect their full cash rate while enabling clients to use insurance to get up to 80% back on private pay therapy.
Christine believes therapists can absolutely build thriving, cash-pay private practices while playing a key role in expanding access to mental healthcare.
Before Mentaya, Christine was a product manager at Google, where she focused on creating impactful, user-centered products in Google AI and Youtube.
