Psychiatric Care for Aetna Members in California

Telehealth psychiatry for adults in California with Aetna coverage — booked through Headway, with your benefits verified up front.

Aetna and behavioral health

Aetna administers behavioral health benefits for many of its California members through its commercial and Open Choice PPO plans. The MindCounsel sees Aetna members across California by secure video, with appointments booked through Headway so your eligibility and cost share are confirmed before the first visit.

Coverage specifics vary by plan — HMO, PPO, and employer-sponsored plans can differ in cost share and telehealth terms.

What Aetna members can be seen for

Care includes adult ADHD evaluation, psychiatric medication management, anxiety and depression treatment, diagnostic clarification, and second opinions. The approach is the same regardless of plan: a careful evaluation first, then a clear, collaborative plan.

How to verify your coverage

If you carry an Aetna card, the fastest way to confirm coverage is at booking. Booking through Headway runs an automatic benefits check, so you can see any copay or deductible before scheduling. Participation with a plan is not a guarantee of coverage for any individual service, and self-pay is available if you prefer.

Private, discreet care

Visits take place over a secure, encrypted platform from a private space of your choosing, with optional in-person visits in Corona. Your information is handled in accordance with applicable privacy laws.
