We Accept Some Insurance:

The practice is in-network with some plans from Aetna, Meritain, Highmark, Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO, Anthem, and Federal Employee Program.

If you are unsure if we are an in-network provider for your plan, feel free to contact us for more information. We offer the courtesy of assisting all potential clients with mental health benefits verification for insurances that we accept. This is because we understand how difficult it is to find a therapist who accepts insurance, and figure out the cost of therapy using insurance benefits on your specific plan.

We also recommend that you check with your health insurance provider to confirm if we are in-network with your insurance and to verify the mental health benefits on your specific insurance plan.

For insurance plans that we are not in network with, we can offer you a Superbill at the end of an appointment for you to submit for any out of network benefits you may have.

At Melanated Women’s Health, you’ll find a team of professional therapists of color with a diverse background of training, experience, and specialties to help put you on the path of healing. Our culturally affirming and anti-oppressive therapy services include:

Breaking the stigma of mental health services for the melanated community.

Even the strongest among us need help. At Melanated Women’s Health, LLC, we know that it is especially hard for people of color and other marginalized communities to go to therapy due to the misconceived notion that doing so is a sign of weakness.

That’s why our BIPOC therapists in Pennsylvania foster a safe, non-judgmental therapy practice where you can get help overcoming the issues that are holding you back from enjoying your life.

To learn more about our culturally affirming and anti-oppressive therapy services, or to schedule a telehealth appointment with one of our Black therapists or therapists of color, contact Melanated Women’s Health, LLC, today.
