Dr. Lindsay Henderson joined Fort Health in 2022 as the founding Clinical Director. As a clinical psychologist and telebehavioral health expert, she brings clinical and industry experience to the oversight of Fort’s clinical programs and care delivery, and leads our clinician team. Lindsay’s clinical background includes postdoctoral fellowship at McLean Hospital’s Child and Adolescent Department followed by five years as staff psychologist, Assistant Director of Postdoctoral Training, and Clinical Instructor in Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School.
Prior to joining Fort Health, Lindsay was the Director of Psychological Services at Amwell from 2016-2022, contributing significantly to the growth and success of the national therapy program. With adept leadership skills, she has trained, led, managed, and mentored a large 50-state telehealth network, driving 80% growth in the therapy provider network in 2020.
Lindsay's ability to optimize processes contributed to successful management of the surge in therapy demand during the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in a 171% increase in visit growth in 2020.
As a strategic bridge between clinicians and internal business teams, Lindsay is instrumental in providing valuable insights into product development, operations, clinical strategy, and the introduction of new programs. As Behavioral Health subject matter expert, she partnered closely with Marketing, PR, Sales, Account Management, Business Development, and HR, and brings that passion for collaboration to building and growing Fort Health. She has contributed to telebehavioral health certification training, graduate coursework, professional education, and HRSA grant consultation.
Lindsay's passion for telehealth is surpassed only by her passion to represent the clinician voice in building healthcare technology. She’s pretty fond of her two kids and husband and as a Rochester NY native, in her spare time you can find her skiing in the winter and relaxing on a lake in the summer.
