Provider is saying they are in-network, but the insurance is saying they are not, what to do?

I have been seeing a therapist through the SonderMind Network, and I have been to 5 sessions so far. Before starting the sessions I made sure with both the SonderMind Network and my therapist that they accept my insurance United Healthcare (More specifically, United Health Care Student Resources, choice plus). But after processing the claims for the sessions I saw that my insurance refused to pay for anything, I called them and found out it’s because the therapist is out-of-network. I am going back and forth between the provider and the insurance and am confused as hell because the provider say they are in-network but the insurance refuses to reprocess any claims because the insurance says according to UHC, they are out of network. I don’t know what to do with this situation, or how to resolve this? How can I prove to the insurance that the provider is in-network? And if the provider is mistaken for some reason, how can I avoid paying $100+ per sessions for the sessions already conducted because it is not my fault that they gave me the wrong information. Advice and help greatly appreciated.
