Getting to know Akilah Muhammad

Greetings, I am Dr. Akilah Muhammad. I possess a clinical license, Master of Social Work Degree, and Doctor of Public Health degree. I combine my education to provide mental health therapy that encompasses mind-body connection through holistic and alternative practices for wellness beyond clinical approaches. For example, I utilize talk therapy through CBT and I also incorporate sound therapy, art engagement, and meditative practices as supportive approaches along the wellness journey. I find these approaches to be practical and easily implemented by the client once they gain experience. This way, clients can add new calming and introspective methods to their tool bag. I especially enjoy serving clients who are seeking support around self-esteem, Early childhood trauma, and Adverse Childhood Experiences can deeply impact self connection further impacting self love and self esteem. I am also well versed in Nutrition methods for depression. I am also well-versed in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders.

In-network insurances

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
