Under the law, health care providers are required to provide clients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance with an estimate of the expected charges for services.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.

What This Means for You

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency services.

• This includes psychotherapy services and any other services reasonably expected as part of your care.

• You may request a Good Faith Estimate before scheduling services or at any time during treatment.

Fees

The standard fee for psychotherapy services is:

• Initial Intake Session (50–60 minutes): $250

• Individual Psychotherapy (50 minutes): $250

• Extended Sessions (75–90 minutes): $300-375

The total cost of treatment will depend on the number of sessions attended and the length of treatment, which varies based on individual needs and goals.

For example, if you attend weekly 50-minute sessions at $250 per session for 12 weeks, your estimated total cost would be approximately $3,000.

If you attend weekly 50-minute sessions at $250 per session for 52 weeks, your estimated total cost would be approximately $13,000.

This estimate is based on the information known at the time and is not a contract. The number of sessions and total cost may change depending on your clinical needs and preferences.

Dispute Resolution

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill through the federal patient-provider dispute resolution process.
