Will health insurance cover multiple Mental Health professionals?

I have Anthem BCBS PPO through an employer. I have tried reaching out to anthem bcbs before for other questions and they've given me wrong information twice now. As in they said one thing, but when it came down to billing they did another. Both worked out in my favor, but their call center drones are worthless.

I'm seeing a psychologist out of network with BCBS that they've been reimbursing me for (based on network rates, so crappy reimbursement.) I have ADHD, and he's not super traditional, he works great for me in some areas of my life, but not others.

He's referring me out to a psychiatrist for medication management, but i'd also like to see another psychologist or therapist for cbt therapy for adhd.

In my area most mental health professionals that take insurance are 'full', or have long waiting lists. I've actually had the same problem looking for a psychiatrist and had to go out of network to get an appointment soon.

I know it's not uncommon to have both a psychologist and a psychiatrist to prescribe meds. But generally speaking would health insurance cover me to see 2 separate therapists and a psychiatrist? The 2 therapists would be treating me for 2 different conditions.
