Metro Atlanta traffic alone can turn a fifty-minute therapy session into a half-day. For Aetna members across Georgia, Psychological Healing offers in-network therapy by secure video with a trauma-focused clinician who has practiced in the state.
Read on for what we treat in Georgia, how we match you with a clinician, and how we check your Aetna benefits.
Telehealth across Georgia
Video sessions reach Aetna members in Atlanta and its suburbs, Athens, Augusta, Macon, Columbus, Savannah, Valdosta, and rural communities in south and north Georgia where specialists are scarce. Sessions are on Eastern time. You’ll need to be physically in Georgia for each appointment and in a private space. Learn how teletherapy works. If you’d prefer to meet in person, we also have offices throughout the US; ask our admin team whether in-person visits are an option with your clinician.
What we treat in Georgia
Our Georgia clinician focuses on trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), racial trauma, anxiety, depression, mood regulation, and interpersonal concerns. Treatment can include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness.
Our Georgia clinician
Psychological Healing has 40 clinicians, offering in-person sessions in 20 states and video sessions in 44 states. Our Georgia clinician who is active with Aetna sees members by secure video across the state. When you reach out, our admin team matches you with a clinician whose license, focus, and schedule fit what you need. You can read about everyone on our team.
How therapy usually unfolds
Most people meet weekly at first, then space sessions out as things improve. Your clinician will check in regularly about progress, and you can raise concerns about pace or focus at any point. Treatment ends when you’ve reached your goals and feel ready to keep going on your own, not on a fixed timeline. We’ll help Georgia members plan for that transition.
Using your Aetna plan in Georgia
Psychological Healing is in-network with Aetna, so we bill Aetna directly and you don’t file claims yourself. What you owe depends on your specific plan and your deductible. We verify your benefits and walk you through them before the first visit. If your plan changes at open enrollment or when you switch jobs, let us know before your next appointment so we can check the new coverage. We do not accept Medicare or Medicare Advantage plans.
Next steps
When you’re ready, use our appointment request form. Mention that you’re located in Georgia and which plan you have. Our admin team handles the benefits check and scheduling, and we’ll answer any questions about how teletherapy works before your first session.
