New York State Senate Mental Health Services
Welcome to Allied Wellness Collective, providing mental health counseling services for New York State Senate employees and family members.
Accessing Your Mental Health Services
No Copay for Up to Eight Counseling Sessions
As a NYS Senate employee or family member, you are eligible for employer sponsored counseling services, for up to eight sessions. If you have a NYS Senate provided insurance plan, your co-pay will be covered by your employer for the first eight sessions. If you do not have a NYS Senate provided insurance plan, your employer will cover your first eight sessions in full.
What Happens After My Eight Covered Sessions?
After your first eight sessions, you will have the option to continue services with your counselor, utilizing any insurance plan you may have available; you will be responsible for any co-pay or co-insurance for that plan; or you may choose to pay for services out of pocket, at which time the fee for services will be discussed with a member of our team.
