About Blackbird

We envision a world where every young person is fully understood and receives the unique support they need to spread their wings and fly.

Blackbird Health provides evaluations and treatment for children, teens, and young adults struggling with developmental differences, mental health concerns, or behavioral challenges. Blackbird serves families in-person and virtually across Pennsylvania, Virginia, and New Jersey, with plans to expand to new states in 2026.

Our approach looks at the whole child - how their brain, body, and behavior interact - to fully understand their challenges and treat the cause, not just the symptoms.
