LiftWell Health today announced a brand consolidation, leadership appointments, and expanded access initiatives aimed at strengthening delivery of specialized mental health care across the state.

 

The Westport-based behavioral health organization is unifying Lift Wellness Group and LiftWell under a single public-facing brand, alongside launching a redesigned digital platform. The move is intended to align clinical services and support growing demand for behavioral health care in Connecticut and the Northeast.

 

As part of the transition, LiftWell Health appointed Awstin Gregg, MBA, LCSW-S, LCDC, as Board Member and President. The organization also announced plans to pursue in-network agreements with major commercial insurers, with agreements anticipated between now and June 2026 to improve access and affordability.

 

LiftWell Health also named Daniel de Faro Adamson as Chairman and Founding Member of its Board of Advisors, supporting long-term growth and strategic development. The organization provides a full continuum of behavioral health services, including outpatient, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, and virtual care for children, adolescents, and adults.

 

“LiftWell is building something thoughtful and much-needed in behavioral health,” said Gregg. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to work alongside this team who cares deeply about their patients, communities, and team. I'm looking forward to the next chapters of LiftWell as we continue building for the future.”

 

“LiftWell Health was built on a rarely-seen standard — provider-owned, expert-led programming, designed entirely around the individual. We have never compromised on this. Today, we are expanding access to it,” said Mary Dobson, Founder and CEO. “This is a defining moment for our organization and the patients we serve. In-network status means families dealing with mental health crises will no longer have to choose between individualized and clinically excellent specialty care and affordability. This matters more than anything to us.”

 

“LiftWell Health exemplifies what is possible when clinical integrity and organizational excellence are pursued together,” said Mr. Adamson. “I am proud to support Mary and the LiftWell team as they build something genuinely important — an organization that refuses to compromise on quality while working to reach more of the people who need it most.”
