One in five adults are living with a mental illness, and approximately one in 20 are living with a serious psychiatric condition. Mental health concerns can range in symptoms causing mild to severe distress. Those living with severe conditions are encouraged to explore comprehensive treatment options with A Mission For Michael (AMFM) located within California, Washington, and Virginia.
At AMFM Mental Health Treatment Centers, we combine evidence-based psychotherapy techniques with holistic treatments and wellness programs to treat mental health disorders. This includes anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia spectrum disorder, and PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder).

For many, using health insurance can help decrease the costs of therapy and counseling services, making it more accessible. We are going to shift our focus to Kaiser Mid-Atlantic mental health coverage and review how their coverage can affect your treatment expenses.

Kaiser Mid-Atlantic insurance coverage can include various evidence-based approaches. As we mentioned earlier, there are variations in the treatments used for specific mental health disorders. Factors that come into consideration include your current symptoms, level of psychiatric distress, treatment goals, and the type of treatment you receive. Some of the treatment approaches that may be included in treatment include:
Group therapy can be used to treat a range of mental health disorders. Group therapy takes place in a supportive environment with others who are experiencing similar mental health challenges as you. This can be a validating experience that helps you gain new insights and perspectives into your experience and your recovery.
Kaiser insurance plans commonly provide coverage for group therapy services. Your plan may have out-of-pocket expenses like copayments, deductibles, and premiums.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) was originally developed to treat borderline personality disorder. This approach incorporates CBT components and mindfulness practices for comprehensive care.

DBT can be incorporated into both group and individual settings. Kaiser Mid-Atlantic insurance policies can include coverage for DBT treatment when it’s appropriate for your mental health symptoms.
Psychodynamic therapy has a strong focus on exploring your unconscious thoughts and early life experiences. These insights are then used to understand your current behaviors and emotional challenges. This approach can help you address deep-rooted conflicts and concerns that are perpetuating your mental health concerns.
Kaiser insurance plans can include long-term treatments that incorporate psychodynamic therapy. This approach is commonly used in outpatient facilities, due to the duration of treatment.
Family therapy sessions can be used to enhance the effects of treatment. This comprehensive treatment allows you and your loved ones to receive individualized care focused on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening relationships. Family therapy can be used in inpatient and outpatient programs, and provide psychoeducation regarding mental illnesses and recovery.
Kaiser insurance policies can include coverage for family therapy. Family therapy may be available within your treatment program, to enhance your mental health treatment.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most widely used therapeutic techniques. This approach can help you recognize negative thought patterns that contribute to unwanted behaviors and feelings. CBT is commonly used to treat depression, anxiety, and PTSD. CBT can be used in inpatient and outpatient settings, as well as individual and group therapy sessions.
Kaiser Mid-Atlantic Insurance commonly provides coverage for CBT treatment, allowing you to access evidence-based and goal-orientated care. CBT can lead to lasting improvements, and introduce you to effective coping strategies.
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) combines the use of cognitive and mindfulness practices. This can help you effectively manage stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms. MBCT can help you gain awareness of your thoughts as they arise, without judging their presence. MBCT can be helpful for those who experience recurrent depression.
Kaiser healthcare policies can provide you with coverage for MBCT when it is appropriate for your symptoms. This approach may be used in both inpatient and outpatient programs.
The cost of mental health treatment when you’re using Kaiser Mid-Atlantic health coverage is generally more affordable than paying out-of-pocket. Health insurance plans can cover some, if not most, of the costs associated with mental health treatment. You may be responsible for a deductible, copayment, and premium.
Of course, the cost of treatment is affected by the care you receive. Depending on your plan, you may have higher personal expenses for inpatient and residential care compared to outpatient treatment. It is important to verify your insurance to be familiar with limitations, exclusions and required prior authorizations. This knowledge can help ensure a smooth insurance claims process.
Without the use of insurance, the cost of mental health therapy and treatment can vary greatly. Factors that will influence your treatment expenses include your symptoms, their severity, the location of your treatment, the use of specialized services, the experience of your staff, and the level of care you receive. Those who receive high-end care tend to have higher treatment costs.
Residential treatment can range from $500 to $2,000 per day, depending on the care you receive. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs will have lower costs than residential treatment but will cost more than traditional outpatient treatment services. Individual therapy sessions can range from $100 to $200 per session, whereas group therapy sessions tend to have lower costs. These prices can fluctuate greatly, which is why we encourage you to contact AMFM Mental Health Treatment Centers for personalized support and guidance.
We recommend starting by verifying your insurance coverage. This can help you understand limitations, exclusions, and required prior authorizations that should be considered. Once you know these details, you can look for a treatment provider that provides the proper treatment and accepts Kaiser Mid-Atlantic insurance policies.
When you choose an AMFM Mental Health Treatment Center, we will verify your coverage to ensure that the proper steps are taken to receive maximum coverage.
