"Stella and Numinus are very much aligned in terms of standards of care and a focus on optimized patient outcomes," said Michael Gershenzon, Co-Founder and CEO of Stella.

We also look forward to working with Numinus to improve clinical mental health care nationwide."

"With this transaction, Numinus is re-positioning to leverage its expertise in patient care, clinic management, relationships with Insurers and now, significant access to operational data to assist clinical providers with the challenge to meet the demand of the growing number of patients seeking treatment," said Payton Nyquvest, Founder and CEO of Numinus.
