At Treat Mental Health California, we are committed to providing specialized mental health treatment for men and women, helping them navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other mental health disorders through accessible, trauma-informed virtual care. Our Virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) and Outpatient Program (OP) offer flexible, evidence-based treatment options designed to promote healing, foster recovery, and support long-term wellness from the comfort of your home. Our comprehensive services include virtual individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and crisis support, utilizing therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). We aim to empower individuals toward lifelong wellness through empathetic, evidence-based practices in a confidential, virtual environment. To ensure treatment is accessible, we accept Cigna insurance, a leading provider committed to mental health parity under federal law. Individuals seeking help can contact us at (619) 704-3750 to verify Cigna coverage and begin the admissions process. Since coverage varies by plan, we recommend confirming your benefits to understand details such as copays, deductibles, and in-network status.
Cigna, formed in 1982 through the merger of Connecticut General Life Insurance Company and INA Corporation, is a global health service company serving over 180 million customers and patients worldwide, with a strong presence in the United States, including California. Cigna offers a range of health plans, including employer-sponsored, individual, Medicare, and Medicaid options, making it a popular choice for comprehensive coverage. Known for its commitment to whole-person care, Cigna integrates physical and mental health services, adhering to the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) of 2008. This federal law ensures that mental health treatments, including virtual therapy and intensive outpatient care, are covered comparably to medical and surgical services, reducing financial barriers for individuals seeking care. At Treat Mental Health California, we partner with Cigna to streamline the insurance process, handling verification and claims to help individuals focus on recovery rather than administrative complexities. Our experienced admissions team ensures we maximize your benefits for trauma-informed, individualized virtual care tailored to conditions such as mood disorders, schizoaffective disorder, suicidal ideation, and PTSD. Verifying your Cigna coverage details is essential to understanding your benefits.
Cigna provides a robust suite of mental health services through its behavioral health division, Evernorth, offering access to a vast network of therapists, psychiatrists, and counselors across California and nationally. Their services include employee assistance programs (EAPs) that provide confidential short-term counseling for issues such as stress, anxiety, or relational challenges, which are particularly beneficial for adults navigating work or family pressures. Cigna’s telehealth services, a cornerstone of their offerings, enable virtual therapy sessions, aligning perfectly with our virtual IOP and OP programs and providing convenience for individuals in urban areas like San Diego or rural regions of California. Additionally, Cigna supports preventive care through wellness programs that include mental health screenings and stress management resources, often covered at no cost under many plans. Their products cover a continuum of care, including virtual intensive outpatient programs (IOP), outpatient therapy, and, in some cases, inpatient hospitalization or partial hospitalization programs (PHP). Treat Mental Health California leverages these services to create personalized virtual treatment plans, aligning our evidence-based therapies like CBT, DBT, and family therapy with Cigna’s commitment to accessible mental health support. Coverage for services like crisis intervention or medication management depends on your specific plan, so verification is essential.
Mental health disorders are conditions that disrupt an individual’s thoughts, emotions, behaviors, or overall well-being, often impacting daily functioning, relationships, and quality of life. Common conditions include anxiety disorders, characterized by excessive worry or panic attacks; depression, marked by persistent sadness or loss of interest; bipolar disorder, involving extreme mood swings between mania and depression; and PTSD, triggered by traumatic events like abuse or accidents, leading to symptoms such as flashbacks or avoidance. Other conditions, such as borderline personality disorder, involve unstable relationships and self-image, while schizoaffective disorder combines mood disturbances with psychotic symptoms like hallucinations. These disorders stem from a mix of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors, affecting men and women across all ages and backgrounds. At Treat Mental Health California, we employ trauma-informed care to address these challenges, recognizing the profound impact of trauma on mental health. Our virtual programs provide a flexible, accessible platform to deliver holistic care, fostering resilience and empowerment. Early intervention is critical, as untreated conditions can lead to complications like chronic health issues, relationship breakdowns, or suicidal ideation. Cigna may cover diagnostic assessments and virtual treatments, but plan specifics determine the extent of coverage, making verification a key step.
Diagnosing mental health disorders relies on standardized criteria, such as those outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Treatment at Treat Mental Health California combines evidence-based therapies, medication management, and holistic support delivered through our Virtual IOP and OP programs. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps individuals reframe negative thought patterns, making it effective for anxiety and depression by addressing cognitive distortions and promoting healthier coping mechanisms. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotional regulation, ideal for borderline personality disorder or mood instability, helping clients manage intense emotions and build resilience. Virtual family therapy strengthens communication and support systems, addressing relational dynamics that contribute to mental health struggles, while virtual group therapy fosters peer connection and shared healing, creating a supportive community for recovery. Our Virtual IOP offers structured, intensive treatment with multiple sessions per week, ideal for those needing more support than standard outpatient care, while our OP provides flexible, less intensive therapy for ongoing recovery. Both programs integrate therapies like CBT, DBT, and trauma-focused approaches with holistic methods such as mindfulness and stress management techniques, all delivered via secure telehealth platforms. Medication management, when necessary, is overseen by our psychiatric team through virtual consultations to complement therapy, ensuring a balanced approach to recovery. Treat Mental Health California tailors these treatments to address individual needs, aligning with our mission to provide empathetic, evidence-based virtual care in a safe, confidential setting. Cigna’s coverage often supports these multimodal virtual treatments, subject to pre-authorization and medical necessity, ensuring access to comprehensive care when verified. Our team aligns these treatments with Cigna’s benefits to maximize coverage, but plan specifics, such as session limits or in-network requirements, should be confirmed by calling (619) 704-3750.

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) reports that approximately 22.8% of U.S. adults—about 57.8 million people—experienced a mental illness in 2021, with 5.5% facing severe cases that significantly impair functioning. Women report higher rates of mental health issues (27.2%) compared to men (18.1%), and young adults aged 18-25 face the highest prevalence of mental illness at 33.7%. In California, the California Health Interview Survey indicates that around 19% of adults experience mental health challenges annually, with urban areas like San Diego seeing elevated rates due to stressors such as high living costs, fast-paced lifestyles, and social pressures. Nationally, only 47.2% of those with mental illness received treatment in 2021, often due to barriers like cost, stigma, or limited access to providers. Private insurance, including Cigna, covers about 22% of mental health treatment expenditures, helping reduce out-of-pocket costs. In California, diverse communities face additional challenges, such as access to culturally competent care or language barriers, particularly in rural areas. The economic impact of untreated mental illness is significant, with lost productivity exceeding $193 billion annually. Treat Mental Health California addresses these needs with tailored, trauma-informed virtual programs, and Cigna’s coverage supports early intervention through telehealth, reducing long-term consequences like chronic mental health challenges or reduced quality of life.

Simply call (619) 704-3750 or submit your policy details through our confidential online form, and we’ll contact Cigna to confirm coverage within 24 hours.

Our goal is to remove barriers, allowing you to focus on healing through our trauma-informed Virtual IOP and OP programs tailored for mental health recovery.
Cigna insurance often covers Virtual Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP) and Outpatient Programs (OP) when deemed medically necessary, depending on your plan’s specifics. At Treat Mental Health California, our Virtual IOP provides structured, intensive virtual care with multiple therapy sessions per week, ideal for individuals with significant mental health symptoms requiring robust support, such as those with suicidal ideation, schizoaffective disorder, or severe mood disorders. Our OP offers flexible, less intensive virtual therapy for ongoing recovery. Coverage typically includes virtual therapy and medication management, though deductibles, copays, or session limits may apply. Some plans may exclude experimental treatments or require prior authorization for virtual IOP. Our team assists with obtaining pre-authorization and navigating appeals if coverage is denied, ensuring access to this vital care. Call (619) 704-3750 to explore your options.
Yes, Cigna generally covers other outpatient treatment, offering flexibility for individuals who can continue work or family responsibilities while receiving care. Treat Mental Health California’s Virtual OP includes individual counseling, group therapy, and family sessions, scheduled to fit your routine via secure telehealth platforms. These services use therapies like CBT and DBT to address mental health disorders, providing ongoing support in a compassionate, judgment-free environment. Coverage often applies after deductibles are met, with lower copays for in-network providers, making ongoing support affordable. Telehealth sessions are typically covered at parity with in-person care, enhancing accessibility for those in San Diego or surrounding areas. Check your plan for session limits or network requirements to avoid unexpected costs. Our admissions team will verify benefits to ensure a smooth process.
Cigna may cover other levels of care, such as Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), if medically appropriate, though our primary offerings at Treat Mental Health California are Virtual IOP and OP. PHP, which may be available through partner providers, offers structured daytime treatment, ideal for individuals transitioning from intensive care or needing robust support without 24/7 supervision. These programs, when covered, align with our evidence-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, and trauma-focused therapies, and may require prior authorization. Our team can assist in coordinating care with partner facilities if needed, ensuring seamless access to appropriate treatment levels.
