This depends on your insurance plan. It is important to understand what you plan covers to understand the costs associated with your care. Most plans have a deductible which means you will be responsible for all costs associated with your appointments until the deductible is met. These fees are determined by your insurance company and vary by plan and type of visit (i.e. initial appointment, follow up, is therapy involved). After your deductible is met, you may only be responsible for co-pays or co-insurance (i.e. 20%). We recommend discussing any concerns with your insurance company if you are unsure of your responsibility.

Follow up appointments will be scheduled based on necessity and may be every 2 weeks to every 3 months and are typically 30 minutes long. Follow ups will involve discussions of medication response and may include therapy.
