Why fundamental health

It took me a few years, and a whole lot of group therapy, to realize just how many people of all shapes and sizes are struggling with their mental health – it was clear, mental illness does not discriminate. And yet, there are clear disparities on who can access quality mental health care. The driving force behind FundaMental Health is aligning my work with my values, the belief that everyone deserves equal access to quality mental health care, and improving access will greatly impact our community.

Chief Executive Officer

professional background

Myke brings extensive experience in marketing strategy and organizational growth, having previously led lifecycle strategy and marketing initiatives at Keap, where he developed expertise in customer engagement and scalable systems.

As CEO of FundaMental Health, Myke oversees strategic direction, fundraising, and organizational development for San Diego’s innovative mental health access nonprofit. Under his leadership, the organization has expanded from a singular program offering donation-funded therapy services to include an additional program that delivers Enhanced Care Management services to underserved communities.

Why fundamental health

My family has been directly impacted by mental health struggles, and I’ve witnessed both the darkness of those times and the healing that comes with proper support. Seeing the other side of that struggle drives my commitment to helping more families turn the corner on their own dark times.

I believe financial circumstances should never be a barrier to accessing quality mental healthcare. I’m passionate about building sustainable systems that remove barriers and ensure anyone seeking mental health support can find it when they need it most. I’m honored to lead an organization expanding access throughout California, making mental healthcare a fundamental right, not a privilege.

Program Support Specialist, Foundation of Care

professional background

Michael graduated from the University of the Pacific with a B.S. in Biological Sciences and completed a Post-Baccalaureate Program in Psychology at UC Irvine. Prior to joining FundaMental Health, he worked as a behavioral interventionist providing behavior therapy to autistic children.

Why fundamental health

Mental health has been a continuous journey for me since high school. College was a particularly challenging period, ultimately leading me to transition from biology to psychology. Through studying psychology, I began to better understand myself and saw meaningful improvements in my mental health. However, the most significant change occurred when I began seeing a psychiatrist.

I am fortunate to have insurance coverage and a financially supportive family — resources that are not available to everyone. When I learned about Wyatt’s mission, I immediately knew FundaMental Health was the right place for me. I am passionate about helping connect underserved communities with accessible, high-quality mental health care.

In addition to events, she supports marketing strategy and communications efforts across the organization.

Before joining, Emily worked in marketing and business development at a health tech startup.

Why fundamental health

Like many people, I’ve experienced seasons where my own mental health felt difficult to navigate. I’ve also watched family members and close friends face their own struggles, and through those experiences, the importance of access to care and support became deeply personal to me. They shaped my interest in mental health and were a big reason why I chose to study psychology.

Joining Fundamental Health felt like a natural opportunity to be part of the mental health space while using my background in marketing and communications in a meaningful way. Being part of a mission-driven organization and a team that genuinely cares about one another and the impact we make is something I’m truly grateful for.

Associate Director, Development & Operations

professional background

Kate has built her career in startup and early-stage environments, developing strong skills in operations, systems management, and relationship-driven work. Her background spans customer success, sales, and administrative roles, shaping a practical, people-centered approach to problem-solving and execution.

At FundaMental Health, Kate serves as Associate Director of Development & Operations. She supports fundraising and development efforts, manages internal systems and documentation, and oversees operational processes that help translate organizational goals into daily execution. Having started as an Administrative Assistant, Kate has grown alongside the organization and continues to take on expanded responsibility as the nonprofit scales.

Why fundamental health

From the start, it was clear that this organization’s team was drawn together not just by work, but by purpose. The working environment here is where people can fully show up without fear of stigma, and where vulnerability is met with understanding rather than judgment. That culture has been a key part of my growth, both professionally and personally.

Mental health has also shaped my life in very real ways. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety while I was still in school, and those challenges ultimately led me to leave before graduating. With the support I had, I was able to begin working, build my career step by step, and reclaim a sense of confidence and direction. That journey taught me that progress is not linear, and that access to support can make all the difference.

When I applied to FundaMental Health, I chose to be open about my own mental health journey because the mission resonated deeply with me. I saw a team actively working to remove the very barriers I once faced. Being part of an organization that believes mental healthcare should be accessible, compassionate, and stigma-free is both grounding and motivating. I’m proud to contribute to work that not only expands access to care, but also creates a workplace where people are supported as whole humans.

Virtual Assistant

Previously Service Delivery Manager at AT&T

BS Mathematics, Polytechnic University of the Philippines

Why fundamental health

As a parent of a child with a neurodevelopmental disorder, I experienced firsthand how difficult it is to find accessible, professional mental health care. Even with financial means, our family faced significant challenges navigating the system.

That experience revealed a profound truth: if it was this hard for us, it is an impossible barrier for countless others. This is why our mission at FundaMental health resonates so deeply with me. We directly address the very obstacles I faced by providing financial assistance and simplifying the path to care through dedicated coordination.

Working here allows me to translate personal understanding into meaningful action. Contributing to a team that removes these critical barriers, and builds a more supportive community, is what brings me purpose.

Why fundamental health

Treated and untreated mental health impacts us all. After I lost my mother at 16, I was drowning in grief but in deep denial of its impacts. Because I was still a straight-A student, almost everyone around me thought I was handling it remarkably, but inside, I was barely hanging on. As a college student, I knew I needed help, but I could not afford it or even find a provider. I finally started therapy nearly a decade afterwards, and I realized how much time I lost by not finding treatment that worked for me. Mental health treatment helped me to regain my sense of self, find balance, and work through trauma instead of running from it. FundaMental Health fills in the gaps I fell through. I am proud to be championing FundaMental Health’s programs and hope that through their work, I can help others find their way again.
