Hello! Will be joining Amazon in a month and would like to know how the Mental Health Benefits are? How many personal therapy sessions I would have access to per year? #amazonbenefits
Mental health service are just a check box in Amazon 1) therapy session free session for first 3 30 minutes huge wait time and availability is a headache 2) headspace not able to find any subscriptions. Edit Coverage with insurance available depending on the co pay it will vary from $$ to $$$
Mental health benefits are really good. I'm with premera and actively in therapy. I am in therapy 2-3 times a week. Never had issues with coverage
Could you tell me more? How much are you paying out-of-pocket? Or are these free sessions? Which medical insurance have you opted for?
I did write premera in my comment so that's the insurance company. Amazon insurance has no copays. So once you meet your deductible..the out of pocket is 10% which is usually 10-15 dollars for me. I usually also hit my out of pocket maximum in a quarter so after that my part is 0$ for each session. There are no free sessions outside the few which EAP offers. And EAP is shit.
Looks familiar - very familiar as I wrote it.

Mental therapist support is included as an Amazon benefit. You probably need some help if you are accepting an offer from the PIP Factory and to answer how much therapy cover is provided - it’s not enough!
What about divorce support?
You joined the PIP Factory….. your partner needs stability so you already lost any divorce.

What do you think is wrong with a kid who got rejected by 9 colleges?
Yeah you get a few therapy sessions paid for per issue you deal with. We used to get free headspace subscriptions too- not sure if that’s still a thing.
Thank you. Was reading about it. 3 sessions/issue did not make sense to me. So, can the therapist be the same? If I need sessions for marriage counseling - which in turn can be broken down to several different issues, would I be able to take advantage of all the 24 sessions for the year? Also - what are headspace subscriptions ?
Not sure my friend. I recommend chatting with your HR Business Partner (HRBP) once you’re onboard.
