Why Aetna members choose us

Billed directly, verified up front.

Aetna is one of the most common commercial and employer group carriers we see among Bend-area patients. We bill Aetna directly on your behalf, so you're never left submitting your own claims.

Before your first appointment, our office verifies your specific Aetna plan — deductible status, specialist copay, and any prior-authorization requirements — so you know your cost ahead of time.

Ways to be seen

Telepsychiatry, online booking, and mental health care.

However you searched for us, it's the same care. Telepsychiatry means your visit happens over secure video instead of in a waiting room — Aetna bills it identically to an in-office appointment. Online psychiatry and online booking mean you can pick a real appointment time yourself, complete intake in the portal, and never sit on hold.

And if you've been searching for mental health care in Bend rather than psychiatry specifically: what we provide is medication management for adult ADHD, depression, anxiety, and PTSD, delivered by a licensed clinician. We don't provide talk therapy in-house, but we coordinate closely with therapists and can help you find one.
