Promoting meaningful change through effective partnership
We believe that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is an invaluable aspect of an effective psychotherapy experience. For that reason, we are committed to guiding you through the process of determining whether Alliance Psychology and Alliance Psychiatry can help you meet your goals for growth. The first step is to contact our clinic through email or telephone. During that discussion, one of our psychologists will discuss with you which services might address your concerns and, if indicated, pair you with one of our providers who can best meet your needs. At that point, an initial face-to-face consultation will be scheduled to further explore your goals for care and establish a way forward together.

Service Fees
For individual, family, and couples therapy, our hourly fees range from $160-$200. For our postdoctoral fellows, our fees are $135. Group therapy ranges from $50-$75 per hour. The total fee for psychological testing will vary based on the procedures used and the professional performing the service. A written good faith estimate of expected charges is available upon request.
The initial intake session for psychiatry is billed at a rate of $525 and involves a comprehensive assessment of needs. The follow-up visit will be billed at a rate of $315 and subsequent medication management appointments are billed at a rate of $210. During these sessions, the psychiatrist assesses the effectiveness of prescribed medications, monitors any potential side effects, and make adjustments as necessary to optimize the patient's treatment plan.
Insurance
Alliance psychologists and psychiatrists operate on a fee-for-service basis and do not accept or bill insurance. Many insurance companies will authorize services for out-of-network providers or make an exception so that out-of-network providers can be seen in certain cases. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have your insurance company’s authorization and available benefits to meet with your psychologist.
More information on payment and related issues can be gained through our Informed Consent paperwork or by contacting us directly by telephone or email.
