You don't have to carry the weight alone—and you shouldn't have to navigate insurance guesswork
Welcome to Mindful Connections Mental Health. We believe high-quality care should be both deeply personal and financially accessible. Our team features open panel availability for members utilizing commercial insurance policies through UnitedHealthcare, Optum, and Aetna.
Why Choose a Mindful Connections Provider?
When you use your insurance benefits at our practice, your care isn’t handled by a corporate machine. Every inquiry is personally reviewed by a compassionate member of our staff to hand-select the perfect therapist for your unique goals.
We bridge the gap between trusted, evidence-based clinical science and genuine human warmth. Our diverse team features both Licensed Doctoral Psychologists (PhD/PsyD) and specialized Master's-Level Clinicians to match your exact scheduling and clinical needs.

4 Simple Steps to Using Your Benefits
- 1. Reach Out: Click our secure contact form to share a piece of your story. It takes less than a minute.
- 2. We Verify & Hand-Match: Our intake coordinator directly verifies your UnitedHealthcare or Aetna mental health benefits. We call the insurance company for you so there are no unexpected financial surprises, and we pair you with the right provider on our staff.
- 3. You reach out to your insurance provider: Simply call the customer/member contact number on the back of your insurance card and ask about your benefits. We will give you all the information you will need to know when speaking with your insurance company (This can be done before or after your consult or appointment is set up: Step 4).
- 4. Your First Session: Choose what feels most comfortable for you: a casual, no-obligation 30-minute phone consultation to check the fit, or skip right to scheduling your first full therapy appointment.
Frequently Asked Insurance Questions
Do you accept all UnitedHealthcare and Aetna plans?
We accept most major commercial, employer-sponsored plans from UnitedHealthcare, Optum, and Aetna. Because insurance networks vary slightly depending on your specific employer package, our care team will explicitly verify your copay or deductible requirements before your first session.
What if I have a high deductible?
If your plan has a deductible that hasn't been met yet, your insurance company sets a discounted "contracted rate" for our sessions. You will pay this lower contracted rate until your deductible clears, rather than our standard out-of-pocket cash rate.
Is my information kept private from my insurance provider?
Yes. All communication within our practice is treated with the utmost confidentiality, sensitivity, and care. Insurance companies only require standard clinical diagnosis and billing codes to process your sessions.
Ready to take the first step?
We know that reaching out can feel daunting, and making that first call is often the hardest part. You do not have to figure it all out today. Let us handle the insurance details while you focus on taking care of yourself.
