At Aurora Mind, we care for adults (18+) navigating a range of mental health concerns, with a focus on clarity, function, and long-term progress.

We commonly support:

• ADHD

• Anxiety and chronic worry

• Depression and low mood

• Panic symptoms

• Obsessive-compulsive patterns (OCD)

• Trauma-related symptoms (PTSD)

• Sleep disturbances and insomnia

• Stress and burnout

• Low motivation and difficulty with follow-through

• Self-esteem and confidence concerns

• Life transitions and adjustment challenges

• Grief and loss

• Social and performance anxiety

To ensure safe, appropriate, and high-quality care, there are certain conditions that are better managed in more specialized or higher-acuity settings.

Aurora Mind is not the right fit for:

• Active suicidal ideation or recent self-harm

• Recent psychiatric hospitalization or crisis-level instability

• Active substance use disorders requiring detox or intensive treatment

• Psychotic disorders (e.g., schizophrenia)

• Severe personality disorders requiring structured therapy programs (e.g., DBT programs)

• Eating disorders requiring multidisciplinary care (e.g., anorexia, bulimia)

• Neurological or medical conditions requiring specialty coordination (e.g., seizure disorders, significant TBI)

If a higher level of care is needed, we will help guide you to the appropriate resources.

Medication decisions at Aurora Mind are thoughtful, individualized, and never rushed. When appropriate, we may prescribe:

• SSRIs and SNRIs (e.g., escitalopram, sertraline, fluoxetine, venlafaxine, duloxetine)

• Atypical antidepressants (e.g., bupropion, mirtazapine)

• Mood stabilizers (e.g., lamotrigine)

• Non-addictive anxiety options (e.g., buspirone, hydroxyzine, propranolol)

• Sleep support medications (e.g., trazodone)

Some medications require additional caution and are prescribed only when clearly appropriate:

• Benzodiazepines (e.g., lorazepam, clonazepam, alprazolam)

• Stimulants for ADHD (e.g., amphetamine salts, methylphenidate)

These are considered on a case-by-case basis, with careful monitoring and clear clinical rationale.

We focus on effectiveness, tolerability, and long-term sustainability.

We are currently in-network with Aetna, Cigna, Carelon Behavioral Health, Quest Behavioral Health, Ascension (Smart Health), Horizon BCBS of NJ and Independence Blue Cross of PA and continue to expand coverage. Coverage varies by plan, so we recommend verifying your benefits prior to your visit.
