Quick answer

MindHealth Psychiatry is in-network with UnitedHealthcare behavioral health benefits (administered through Optum) for adults in Eugene, Oregon, in person or by telehealth. We treat adult ADHD, depression, anxiety, and PTSD, and verify your benefits before your first visit. UHC Medicaid/Community Plan is not accepted.

Why Optum / UHC members choose us

Billed directly, verified up front.

UnitedHealthcare routes behavioral health benefits through Optum for many commercial and employer group plans across Oregon — a common setup we see regularly among Eugene-area patients. We bill your plan directly, so you're never left submitting your own claims.

Before your first appointment, our office verifies your specific Optum / UHC benefits — 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 — Optum / UHC 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 Eugene 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.
