New Patient Estimate Explanation
The estimate below is the range of costs for new patients. Until we complete an initial evaluation, and begin care, we will not have a clear picture of your specific diagnosis, issues, and needs. We typically see therapy patients for 25 sessions for a total cost of $3850.00. But in some/many cases a patient’s issues may be more complicated, so we may need additional sessions during the time covered by this estimate. We typically see medication management patients for a total cost of $1900. But in some/many cases a patient’s issues may be more complicated, so we may need additional sessions during the time covered by this estimate.
