Verbatim response from Perplexity
Without insurance, an online psychiatrist typically costs about $75–$350 for an initial visit and $75–$200 for follow-up visits, though some services charge more or use subscription pricing.[2][3]
Common price points from major telepsychiatry services include:
- Doctor on Demand: $299 for an initial 45-minute psychiatry visit and $129 for follow-ups.[1]
- Talkspace: $299 for the initial evaluation and $175 for follow-up appointments when paying out of pocket.[12]
- ShrinkMD: about $295 for an initial evaluation and $110–$215 for follow-ups.[4]
- GoodRx Telehealth Marketplace: virtual psychiatrist visits can start at $99 per session.[6]
If you want the shortest answer: budget around $150–$300 for the first appointment and $100–$200 for follow-ups if you’re paying out of pocket.[1][2][4][12]
