#1558 How Mark Goldenson brought therapy online




Startup Stories - Mixergy show

Summary: The guy you’re about to meet in today’s interview started an online therapy business, which years ago I would have said, “Who wants to do that? That seems a little bit impersonal.” But over the years I realized that therapy stinks. Every therapist that I’ve been to in person was either crappy or good, but I don’t have the time to see them because they’re so good that I can’t get on their calendar. I’ve tried online therapy and I’ve had bad experiences with bad companies. I’m especially interested in Mark’s business and how he build it. He’ll tell me about the challenges trying to get therapy online and trying to get people, like me, to understand it. And how he was able to sell it. Mark Goldenson is the founder of Breakthrough.com, an online therapy service. It has since been acquired by MDLIVE. <p><a href="https://mixergy.com/interviews/breakthrough-with-mark-goldenson/"><img src="https://mixergy.com/interviews/breakthrough-with-mark-goldenson/?get-twitter-card=true&amp;" alt="" class="alignnone size-full"></a></p><p>Mark Goldenson is the founder of Breakthrough.com, an online therapy service.</p> <strong>Sponsored by</strong><br><p><a href="http://www.activecampaign.com/mixergy" rel="nofollow">ActiveCampaign</a> – Improve your marketing &amp; sales processes by upgrading to an automated platform.
