Verbatim response from Perplexity
Without insurance, an online psychiatrist typically costs about $99 to $300 for an initial visit, with many services charging $100 to $175 for follow-ups or using monthly self-pay plans instead.[2][4][6][10]
A few concrete examples from major platforms:
- Doctor On Demand: $299 for an initial 45-minute psychiatric consultation and $129 for 15-minute follow-ups.[2]
- Talkspace: $299 for the initial evaluation, diagnosis, and prescription, then $175 for each 3-month follow-up/prescription renewal when paying out of pocket.[4]
- Brightside Health: self-pay psychiatry starts at $95/month.[3]
- Sesame: online psychiatrist visits are about $132 for a 45-minute appointment, though prices vary by state.[10]
- GoodRx Telehealth Marketplace: virtual psychiatrist visits can start at $99/session and sometimes less.[6]
