Built for kids and teens, here for you
Navigating parenthood can be difficult enough. Getting help shouldn't be. Brightline is here for you.

Hi there!
I’m Naomi, co-founder & CEO of Brightline. Our expert care team provides families with in-person and virtual therapy, psychiatric services, and psychological testing for kids up to age 18.
We understand that you know your child better than anyone. And when it’s hurt feelings or a scraped knee, you’re the first and best person to care for them. But when it comes to things like depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, or autism, it’s easy to feel unsure of how to help.
Know that what you’re going through may be new to you, but it’s not new to us.
In fact, I started Brightline because when my own son started showing signs of anxiety, navigating the broken system showed me firsthand how hard finding trustworthy care for your kids can be.
Between sitting on months-long waitlists and being sent to provider directories without ever getting in touch with an actual human — all while my child still didn’t have the care he needed — took a toll on my own mental health.
Through Brightline, I hope to give families like yours the support I wished mine had — personalized, expert care, when you actually need it.
We can’t wait to meet your family!
— Naomi Allen, Co-founder & CEO
