Talkspace and Tia Health team to address women's mental health needs at all stages of life
Talkspace to be Tia’s Primary Therapy and Psychiatric Services Partner, Providing Care Continuity and Enhancing Primary Care Offerings
The partnership represents Talkspace's continued expansion into specialized women's health services, building on its collaboration with women's health providers to address the unique mental health challenges that women face throughout their lives.
The relationship comes amid growing concerns around the mental health of women and mothers. A recent report from JAMA, for example, found the mental health of mothers in
Tia Health is the largest primary care provider purpose-built for women, specifically anchored in comprehensive, cross-life care. Tia offers an expanded primary care model by integrating primary care with gynecology, mental health, skin care, and wellness services, such as acupuncture. The company has provided care to more than 100,000 women and currently offers services in CA, NY, CT, NJ, MA, and AZ.
While Tia has always supported patients with psychiatric medication management for mental health needs, Tia will expand the scope of support for patients by partnering with Talkspace on psychotherapy. Talkspace will provide therapy and psychiatric services to support women across all life stages. Under the new partnership, Tia Health’s primary care providers will refer and collaborate directly with Talkspace providers, creating a comprehensive care model that addresses women’s physical and mental wellness.
"By integrating our services directly into primary care, we're removing barriers and creating a more holistic approach to women's wellness. This builds on our work with women's health coalitions and adds more opportunities for people to find mental health services." said Nikole Benders-Hadi, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Talkspace.
This partnership expands Talkspace's growing focus on women's health, which includes a collaboration started last year with Ovia Health by Labcorp to launch the Women’s Health Coalition for Digital Solutions and a partnership with Evernow, which provides digital care for women in perimenopause or menopause.
“We believe that mental health is foundational to women’s overall health and must be integrated seamlessly into each individual’s care plan — not operate as a separate service,” said Tia Health Co-founder and CEO Felicity Yost. “From adolescence to menopause and beyond, women face distinct emotional and psychological needs that too often go unaddressed in traditional primary care. Partnering with Talkspace allows us to integrate high-quality mental health care into every stage of the patient journey, fulfilling our mission to deliver whole-person, whole-life care for women.”
