Fees

Clear pricing. No surprises.

Harborlight Psychiatric is a private pay practice. Below is a full breakdown of fees by service, along with our payment and cancellation policies — so you know exactly what to expect before you schedule.

Harborlight Psychiatric is a private pay, cash-based practice

Harborlight Psychiatric is a private-pay practice. We do not bill insurance, verify benefits, or accept Medicare or Medicaid. A 25% deposit is required at the time of booking to hold your appointment, with the remaining balance charged on the day of the visit. HSA and FSA cards are accepted. For eligible services, a superbill may be available upon request for you to submit to your insurance company. Reimbursement is not guaranteed, and a superbill may not be available if the clinician participates with your specific insurance plan through another arrangement.

Fees by service

The Comprehensive ADHD Evaluation and Hormonal Mood & PMDD Evaluation are each billed as a single bundled fee covering all required sessions. Deprescribing is billed using our standard evaluation and follow-up rates below — there is no separate deprescribing fee.

Payment policy

Hand holding a credit card near a laptop, representing secure card-on-file payment for psychiatric care

A valid card is kept securely on file for all patients. A 25% deposit is charged at the time of booking to hold your appointment. The remaining balance is charged on the day of your visit. If the balance charge fails, one additional attempt will be made — if that also fails, the appointment will be canceled.

  • A card on file is required to book any appointment
  • A 25% deposit is charged at booking; the remaining balance is charged on the day of the visit
  • Exception: QbCheck purchased as a standalone add-on or repeat assessment is charged in full at the time of booking
  • If the balance charge fails, one retry will be made — if that also fails, the appointment will be canceled
  • You will receive a receipt for each charge for your records
  • HSA and FSA cards are accepted for all services
  • For eligible services, a superbill may be available upon request for submission to your insurance company. Harborlight does not verify out-of-network benefits, and reimbursement is not guaranteed. A superbill may not be available if the clinician participates with your specific insurance plan through another arrangement.

Cancellation policy

Late cancellation & no-show policy

We ask for at least 48 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Appointments canceled with less than 48 hours' notice, or missed entirely, are subject to a fee of up to 100% of the service cost. Your 25% deposit will be held, and the remaining balance will be applied to a future appointment if rescheduled within 30 days — or refunded if rescheduling is not completed within that window.

All intake paperwork must also be completed and submitted at least 48 hours before your appointment. If this deadline is not met, the appointment will be canceled — your deposit will be held and the balance applied to a rescheduled visit, or refunded if not rescheduled within 30 days.

Common questions about fees

  • Being private pay lets us spend real time with patients, make clinical decisions without an insurance company weighing in, and offer more flexibility in scheduling than a typical in-network practice can. It also means we are not limited by insurance-dictated visit lengths or frequency restrictions.

  • Yes. HSA and FSA cards are accepted for all services at Harborlight Psychiatric.

  • For eligible services, a superbill may be available upon request for you to submit to your insurance company. Harborlight does not verify out-of-network benefits, and reimbursement is not guaranteed. A superbill may not be available if the clinician participates with your specific insurance plan through another arrangement. We recommend contacting your insurer before scheduling if reimbursement will affect your decision to receive care.

  • A 25% deposit at booking confirms your appointment and reduces no-shows, which ultimately helps us keep availability open for everyone. The remaining balance is charged on the day of your visit, so the total cost is spread across two predictable charges rather than one upfront payment. You'll always know what you owe before your visit — no surprises after the fact.

  • Rescheduling is easy as long as it's done at least 48 hours before your appointment. If you reschedule within that 48-hour window, the standard cancellation fee applies, the same as a cancellation.

  • No — the ADHD Evaluation and the Hormonal Mood & PMDD Evaluation are each billed as a single flat fee ($825) that covers every session required for that evaluation. You won't see separate per-session charges for these two bundles.

  • QbCheck is included in the bundled ADHD Evaluation fee. It's only billed separately ($225) if you're adding it on outside of a full evaluation, or repeating the assessment at a later date.

  • Deprescribing uses our standard Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation rate ($475) for the intake visit. Taper monitoring appointments are billed at the standard Follow-Up Visit rate ($250) for most check-ins, or the Extended Follow-Up rate ($450) when a session requires more time — for example, a complex taper adjustment or a more involved conversation about your plan. There is no separate or additional deprescribing fee; the cost reflects the number and type of visits your taper requires.

  • No. This is a separate, optional service. Most new patients are well served by our standard 60-minute Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation ($475). The Functional & Integrative Psychiatry Evaluation ($875) is a 120-minute visit available for patients who want significantly more time and depth than a standard evaluation allows. Ongoing follow-up visits within this track are scheduled as Extended Follow-Up Visits (50 minutes, $450) — this is the standard cadence for the Functional & Integrative track, not an occasional upgrade.

  • Yes. As a private pay practice, federal law requires that we provide uninsured and self-pay patients with a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges before treatment begins. You will receive this estimate after scheduling and before your first appointment. If you are ever billed substantially more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the charge.

Forms, Letters & Documentation — Optional Fees
(available to established patients only)

Forms & documentation

Harborlight Psychiatric provides certain forms and letters for established patients, at the clinician's discretion and based on clinical appropriateness. Below is a summary of what's available, what isn't, and what each item costs.

Provider completing forms and letters for documentation of support needs

  • At the clinician's discretion, we may provide forms such as 504 plan letters, Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letters, brief confirmation letters, and school or workplace accommodation letters. Availability depends on clinical appropriateness and the nature of your treatment relationship — not every form is suitable for every patient or situation.

  • No. Harborlight does not offer long-term disability certification under any circumstances.

  • Short-term disability may be considered for established patients who are participating in a psychiatric day program that requires time off work. This is evaluated at the clinician's discretion and is not guaranteed. An office visit is required, along with the applicable form completion fee below.

  • A brief confirmation letter verifies that a patient is under active treatment and states the length of the treatment relationship. These letters do not include diagnoses, disability determinations, or legal opinions of any kind. One brief confirmation letter is included annually at no charge; additional letters requested within the same year are $50 per letter.

  • ESA letters may be issued when clinically appropriate and after a sufficient duration of treatment, at the clinician's discretion. The flat fee for an ESA letter is $150.

  • If no additional evaluation is required, the fee is $150. If an evaluation is required to support the request, the cost is the applicable office visit fee plus $50 per page for form completion.

  • STD and FMLA paperwork requires an office visit. Form completion is billed at $50 per page, in addition to the office visit fee.

  • Yes, in certain circumstances. Fees for legal requests are provided upon request — please note that Harborlight Psychiatric does not provide court-mandated evaluations, forensic opinions, custody evaluations, or fitness-for-duty assessments.

  • Medical record requests are processed in accordance with applicable state and federal law. Fees are limited to allowable cost-based charges, and any applicable fees will be disclosed to you before the request is completed.

Forms are available to established patients only

We are not able to complete forms, letters, or documentation for individuals who are not actively established as patients at Harborlight Psychiatric. Whether a specific form is appropriate is determined by the clinician based on the clinical relationship and treatment history.
