Navigating outpatient mental health treatment covered by insurance can feel overwhelming. At Pax Healing, we make it simple for you to access therapy, psychiatry, and hybrid programs under Cigna, Medicaid, or PPO plans. Whether you’re seeking relief from depression, anxiety, trauma, or co-occurring disorders, our tailored treatment programs ensure you receive comprehensive care and the support necessary for lasting recovery.
Understand insurance options
Under Cigna plans
When you have Cigna coverage, outpatient mental health services are included as part of your Essential Health Benefits. In fact, Cigna plans cover therapy, psychiatric visits, medication management, intensive programs and telehealth with minimal out-of-pocket costs. You’ll choose from a network of credentialed providers, and most services require only a copay or coinsurance after your deductible.
Our outpatient therapy that accepts Cigna lets you access individual, group and family sessions designed to meet your unique goals. If you need medication evaluation or ongoing adjustments, our psychiatric care covered by Cigna insurance ensures expert management. For integrated support, Cigna accepts dual diagnosis outpatient treatment, combining mental health and addiction care. You can also explore both mental health IOP in-network and Full Day Program for depression to fit your schedule and intensity needs.
Cigna-covered services include:
- Individual psychotherapy
- Group therapy
- Medication management with board-certified psychiatrists
- Telehealth counseling
- Intensive outpatient (IOP) and partial hospitalization (Full Day Program)
- Dual diagnosis programs
Our insurance specialists handle preauthorization so you can focus on healing.
Under Medicaid coverage
Medicaid enrollees receive outpatient mental health services as essential benefits, often with no or low copays. While specifics can vary by state, most programs cover therapy, case management and medication services.
With our Medicaid-covered outpatient mental health services, you can access individual and group therapy for depression, anxiety, trauma and substance use. We also provide behavioral health outpatient care medicaid accepted, ensuring seamless access to therapists, social workers and case managers. Our psychiatric evaluation medicaid approved services kick off your treatment plan, and you can continue with mental health counseling with medicaid coverage or telehealth counseling medicaid accepted.
Medicaid benefits often cover:
- Individual and group therapy
- Medication monitoring
- Telehealth visits
- Case management
- Crisis intervention
We guide you through any referral or prior authorization steps, making enrollment straightforward.
Under PPO benefits
PPO plans offer flexibility to choose both in-network and out-of-network providers. You’ll typically pay lower cost shares for in-network care, and you may access services sooner without referrals.
Our virtual therapy with PPO insurance program connects you to clinicians from home, while PPO-accepted outpatient therapy for depression and other conditions is available in person. For medication management, our insurance covered therapy and medication management service ensures transparent pricing. We also offer family therapy covered by PPO insurance and PPO-accepted mental health and addiction treatment to involve loved ones in your recovery.
PPO plans typically cover:
- In-network individual and group therapy
- In-network psychiatry
- Virtual and in-person counseling
- Out-of-network options (subject to higher cost shares)
- Family and couples therapy
- Dual diagnosis and addiction programs
Our team provides a clear estimate of costs before you begin treatment.
Explore outpatient services
Therapy and counseling
Your outpatient journey starts with evidence-based therapy. Our clinicians use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and trauma-informed approaches to help you develop coping skills and emotional resilience. You’ll choose from:
- Individual psychotherapy tailored to your history and goals
- Group skill-building workshops for peer support
- Family or couples sessions to strengthen relationships
- Psychoeducation on stress management and relapse prevention
We accept Cigna, Medicaid and PPO plans, so you can focus on growth rather than finances. For specialized care, our trauma therapy insurance accepted provider offers targeted interventions for PTSD and complex trauma.
Medication management
Medication can be a vital component of a comprehensive treatment plan. At Pax Healing, board-certified psychiatrists conduct in-depth evaluations, prescribe evidence-based medications and monitor your progress over time. We handle pharmacy benefits and prior authorizations, ensuring you get timely refills and adjustments.
Key features of our medication management:
- Initial psychiatric evaluation and diagnosis
- Follow-up appointments to adjust dosage
- Side effect monitoring and education
- Collaboration with therapists for holistic care
- Coordination with pharmacies for seamless delivery
Whether you hold a Cigna plan, Medicaid or a PPO, our psychiatric care covered by Cigna insurance and Medicaid services ensure continuity in your treatment.
Telehealth and hybrid care
Telehealth offers flexibility and privacy, letting you attend sessions from home or work. Pax Healing provides secure video and phone appointments for both therapy and psychiatry. With telehealth therapy covered by Cigna and telehealth therapy covered by Medicaid, you can maintain consistency during travel, illness or busy schedules. PPO members benefit from virtual therapy covered by PPO plan and in-person options.
Our hybrid model blends in-person visits with telehealth sessions, adapting to your needs without compromising quality. This approach supports ongoing engagement and helps you build momentum in your recovery.
Intensive outpatient programs
If you need more structure than standard outpatient care, IOP and Full Day Program deliver targeted support without requiring overnight stays. These programs combine therapy, education and medical oversight several days per week.
- IOP
Offers group and individual sessions, medication monitoring and skill-building activities. Cigna members can join our in-network mental health IOP program. - Full Day Program
Provides daily therapeutic groups, one-on-one coaching and medical supervision. Ask about our Full Day Program for depression covered by Cigna option.
IOP and Full Day Program let you maintain work, school and family responsibilities while receiving structured, supportive care.
Address specific conditions
Depression care
Depression can cloud every area of your life, but outpatient treatment covered by insurance makes expert help accessible. At Pax Healing, we blend CBT, interpersonal therapy and medication-assisted approaches to lift mood and restore motivation. Your individualized plan focuses on symptom relief, skill development and relapse prevention.
Anxiety treatment
Anxiety disorders vary from generalized anxiety to panic and social phobia. Through exposure techniques, mindfulness training and medication when needed, we help you confront fears and build confidence. Cigna members can explore our accepted anxiety treatment program, and Medicaid recipients receive anxiety-focused outpatient groups with little or no cost.
Trauma-informed therapy
Processing traumatic experiences requires a safe, supportive environment. Our trauma-informed team uses evidence-based interventions—such as EMDR and somatic therapy—to help you regain a sense of safety. We offer both in-person and remote sessions to fit your comfort level.
Dual diagnosis support
When substance use and mental health issues co-occur, integrated care is essential. Pax Healing’s dual diagnosis outpatient care covered by insurance program blends therapy, group support and medical oversight to address both conditions simultaneously. This comprehensive approach reduces relapse risk and promotes sustained recovery.
