The Heart of InStride

Drs. Mona Potter and Kathryn Boger, InStride’s clinical co-founders, worked together for more than a decade at the nation’s leading freestanding psychiatric hospital, where they shared a commitment to improving behavioral health care for young people. Too often they saw kids with anxiety and OCD not receiving the care they needed.

Given the growing demand, they asked themselves, “How can we be part of the solution?” The answer was to make specialized anxiety and OCD treatment scalable and accessible. To do that, they gathered experts who share their passion and purpose—and together they built InStride, an evidence-based, insurance-backed approach to anxiety and OCD care that brings therapy out into the real world.
