Nobody should have to book an appointment to find out what the appointment costs. Here are the real numbers: typical Maryland market ranges, how insurance arithmetic works elsewhere, and this practice’s exact self-pay rates.
Book a Telehealth Appointment →Across Maryland, a self-pay initial psychiatric evaluation typically runs between $300 and $600, with follow-up medication management visits between $150 and $300. Prices climb toward the top of those ranges in Montgomery County and Bethesda specifically, and at concierge practices; they run lower with some telehealth practices and community clinics. Longer intakes cost more for a reason: a 60-minute evaluation that reviews your full history is a different product than a 20-minute intake that ends in a prescription.
With insurance, your cost is not the sticker price but your plan’s arithmetic: a specialist copay (commonly $20 to $60 per visit) if you have met any deductible rules, or the contracted rate applied to your deductible if you have not. High-deductible plans mean paying a negotiated rate out of pocket, often $150 to $350 for an intake, until the deductible is met. Always confirm a prescriber is in-network for your specific plan; out-of-network psychiatric bills are where surprise costs live.
This practice keeps it simple and posts everything: a comprehensive initial psychiatric evaluation is $400 and a 30-minute follow-up is $200. In Maryland the practice is self-pay only: nothing is billed to insurance and no claim is filed, and a superbill is available on request. Full details, including the cancellation policy, are on the Rates page. Telehealth visits cost the same as in-person visits; the format does not change the price.
Evaluations: $300 to $600 self-pay. Follow-ups: $150 to $300. Location, visit length, and credential drive the spread.
Evaluation $400. Follow-ups $200 (30 min). No memberships, no surprise fees, no insurance claims.
This practice does not bill insurance in Maryland. You pay the posted rate, and a superbill is available if your plan reimburses out-of-network care.
Untreated anxiety, depression, and ADHD have their own price in work, relationships, and health. It compounds faster than any copay.
The intake is the foundation: a full psychiatric history, screening for the conditions that mimic each other, and a treatment plan. Getting it right once is cheaper than years of treatment aimed at the wrong diagnosis.
Not at this time. Maryland visits are self-pay: $400 for the initial evaluation and $200 for a 30-minute follow-up, with nothing billed to insurance. Many plans reimburse part of an out-of-network psychiatric visit; a superbill can be provided on request for you to submit.
Community services boards, federally qualified health centers, and sliding-scale clinics serve every Maryland county. Care exists at every price point, and needing the lower-cost door is nothing to apologize for.
Telehealth is billed identically to in-person care. Brief prescription refills between visits carry no charge; extensive forms and letters are discussed transparently before any fee applies.
Evaluation $400 self-pay, $200 follow-ups. Telehealth across Maryland.
