Fees:

Clients who work the therapeutic process usually consider psychotherapy well worth the investment of time and money. Individual therapy sessions usually start on time and are 45 to 50 minutes long. The out of pocket cost ranges from $0.00 to $150.00 per session, depending on insurance coverage, income level, and so on. Fees are dictated by the agreement between the Center, consultant and insurance company. For example, a typical insurance company agreement allows Apex to charge a $20.00 co-pay, and the insurance company pays the "negotiated provider fee," typically between $50.00 and $90.00 per session. Although we do not offer garage sale rates where psychotherapy prices are negotiable, we offer flexibility with our fee structure. One consultant accepts $60.00 per session for self pay clients while another charges full fee.

We participate with MEDICAID, MEDICARE, and most major insurance programs. If payment is an issue, please talk with us about it and we will work with you to create a "win-win" strategy. Our goal is to help you simplify and get control of your life, not to add to your stress by creating financial hardship.

Finally, if you have no insurance coverage, you may be eligible for "gray zone coverage," a Maryland state program that pays for psychological treatment if you meet certain criteria.
