Good to know

Your Aetna coverage, in plain terms

In-network

We're in-network with Aetna for many plans. Because plans differ, we'll confirm that yours is covered before your first session.

Your costs

What you pay depends on your plan's copay, coinsurance, and deductible. We can help you understand your estimated out-of-pocket cost.

Referrals

Most Aetna plans don't require a referral for outpatient therapy, but we'll help you check whether yours does.

Telehealth

Many Aetna plans cover virtual sessions the same as in person. Ask us to verify telehealth coverage on your plan.

Coverage and benefits vary by individual plan and are not guaranteed until verified. The fastest way to confirm your specific benefits is to contact us, or call the Member Services number on your Aetna card.

In-Network Mental Healthcare

While it's always good to verify first, the Institute of Psychological Resilience is in-network with this insurance provider.

What Services Does Aetna Tend to Cover

Aetna plans tend to cover a variety of mental health services, such as individual, group, and couples counseling. Your plan may cover virtual therapy, in-person sessions, and testing. What's covered and how often varies based on your coverage and specific plan details.

Figuring Out Your Coverage

If you have this insurance and would like to figure out which of the Institute of Psychological Resilience's services are covered, check out the insurer's website. You can narrow down your results to your specific plan and see from there how much coverage you have.

At your appointment, one of our billing specialists can review your plan and determine your coverage.

Costs You Can Expect to Pay

The price you'll pay for each appointment depends on your clinician, services, and plan. A member of the Institute of Psychological Resilience can provide you with a general idea of what you can expect to pay, which will include your policy specifics and anticipated treatment.

You're responsible for paying the copay and any deductible you still have for the year. The amount you pay varies based on your policy.

Referral Information for Aetna Policies

Before you search for "counseling near me," you may wonder if you'll need a referral to see a mental health specialist. That depends on your specific policy. Sometimes, you need to have your primary care practitioner provide a referral for insurance to cover it. With some plans, no referral is necessary, and you may see a mental health provider as you deem necessary.

Psychologist vs. Counselor: Are Both Covered?

Plans may cover either a counselor or psychologist for your treatment, although each one has different training. However, you'll want to check to see if the particular practitioner is in your network.

How to Find the Right Therapist for You

Start the process by looking for practices that take your insurance. Then look at all the practice's therapists. Consider whether you want a man or a woman, or if it doesn't matter. Do you have a preference about ethnicity so you can work with a practitioner who can better relate to you?

Whether or not you narrow your options down from there, start reading each profile. Look for a practitioner who has a style that appeals to you.

As you're deciding, check each practitioner's education and experience. Evaluate the expertise of each practitioner. Some may specialize in children or teens or may have specific experience with crime victims or individuals involved in the legal system.

Does Why You Want to See a Therapist Matter?

This isn't straightforward. The insurance provider covers mental health services and encourages people to seek out the healthcare they need. However, whether or not your case is covered by insurance depends on your policy.

The reason you're seeing a counselor can also help you select a provider. Not every mental health professional can handle each type of case. You may receive a referral to another provider if your particular case is outside their expertise. That way, you receive the care you need, and your treatment is truly beneficial to you.

Confidentiality Is Part of Care on All Ends

Both your insurance provider and our practice keep your information confidential. Your insurance company and the Institute of Psychological Resilience must remain HIPAA-compliant, so the reason you're here, any details, your diagnosis, and treatment are protected. Therefore, if you're struggling, don't let concerns about confidentiality and privacy stop you from receiving the help you need.
