Philadelphia, PA — In recognition of Women’s History Month, Unorthodox Therapy Inc. (UTInc.) proudly celebrates its founder, Monychann (Mo) McCarty, who was honored with the opportunity to speak inside the Philadelphia City Council Chambers, a space where many of the city’s most important conversations and decisions take place.

The recognition reflects McCarty’s continued commitment to uplifting women, advocating for mental health awareness, and building community driven pathways to healing across Philadelphia. Being invited to speak during Women’s History Month represents both a personal milestone and a moment that highlights the growing impact of grassroots nonprofit leadership within the city.

Women’s History Month serves as a reminder of the countless women who have shaped communities, created opportunities, and paved the way for future generations.

This moment represents not only my journey, but the many women who continue to serve their communities with heart and dedication.”

Through Unorthodox Therapy, McCarty has focused on bridging mental health support with community engagement, helping women find healing through connection, conversation, and culturally grounded programming. Her work has brought together leaders from nonprofit organizations, local businesses, faith communities, and government partners to create spaces where women feel supported and empowered.
