This partnership marks a major milestone in Lumina\u2019s mission to redefine employer-sponsored mental health care through premium, human-centered, in-person therapy experiences.

“Joining Lumina allows us to expand our impact without compromising what makes Manhattan Wellness special,\u201d said Jennifer Teplin, Founder of Manhattan Wellness. “We believe deeply in in-person care, strong therapeutic relationships, and thoughtful practice culture.
