Serving adults and adolescents 13-17 throughout Downtown Hartford, the West End, Asylum Hill, Frog Hollow, and surrounding suburbs including West Hartford, Bloomfield, Wethersfield, and Newington. Skip the shortage of local providers and book a board-certified psychiatric evaluation from the privacy of your home — usually within the same week.
Book Your EvaluationHartford is the insurance capital of America — which creates an unusual paradox. Residents typically have excellent health benefits through Aetna, Cigna, Travelers, The Hartford, and other insurance-industry employers. But finding a psychiatrist willing to take that insurance, with appointments available inside the next two months, is genuinely difficult. Hartford HealthCare and Saint Francis outpatient clinics often quote 8-12 week waits, and private practices increasingly refuse all insurance.
Our telehealth practice solves both problems at once. We're in-network with the major CT plans, we see new Hartford patients within days (not months), and the entire visit happens from wherever you are — your home in West Hartford, your office in downtown, or a quiet spot in Bloomfield. No driving down Asylum Avenue. No parking near the Capitol. No waiting in a lobby.
Adult and teen ADHD diagnostic assessment using DSM-5 criteria and standardized rating scales.
Generalized anxiety, panic disorder, social anxiety, and workplace stress common to the insurance industry.
Evidence-based treatment for major depression, seasonal affective disorder, and postpartum mood changes.
Supportive psychotherapy combined with medication management — one provider, one plan.
Ongoing refills and adjustments, including transfers from a previous Hartford HealthCare or Saint Francis provider.
Full diagnostic evaluations, second opinions, and documentation for FMLA or workplace accommodations.
Connecticut has a documented psychiatric provider shortage, particularly in Hartford County. Telehealth expands the pool so you're not fighting for the same 10 local appointment slots.
If you work for Aetna, Cigna, The Hartford, Travelers, or any major Hartford employer, your plan likely covers telehealth psychiatry at the same copay as an in-person visit.
Instead of driving from Bloomfield or Wethersfield to a downtown clinic, meet from home. Save the gas, the mileage, and the hour of your afternoon.
We serve West Hartford, Farmington, Glastonbury, Manchester, and other Greater Hartford communities where in-person psychiatry can be even harder to find than in the city itself.
Hartford residents typically have some of the best mental health benefits in the country thanks to the city's insurance industry. We're in-network with the plans most common to Capitol Region employers:

Connecticut — and Hartford County specifically — faces a documented mental health provider shortage. The state has been designated a Health Professional Shortage Area for mental health in multiple regions. Combined with increased demand since 2020, local psychiatric practices and the Hartford HealthCare system often quote 8-12 week waits for new patients. Telehealth expands access by letting CT-licensed providers serve patients statewide.
Generally excellent. Most Hartford-area insurance employers (Aetna, Cigna, The Hartford, Travelers, MassMutual) offer robust mental health coverage with low specialist copays and full telehealth parity. Since these employers typically self-fund with their own plans, benefits are often better than the average commercial plan. Your HR portal or member services line can confirm your specific copay.

Yes. Under Connecticut General Statutes § 19a-906 and subsequent telehealth coverage expansions, commercial health insurers are required to cover telehealth mental health services on the same basis — including copay, deductible, and coinsurance — as in-person services.
