The NYC psychiatric market is broken. Most private practices in Manhattan are out-of-network with every insurer, charging $300-$500 per visit, and Columbia, Mount Sinai, and NYU hospital clinics routinely quote 2-3 month waits. Meanwhile the city's relentless pace masks ADHD as "hustle," depression as "I'm just tired," and anxiety as "I'm a New Yorker."

Our in-network telehealth practice fixes all of that. No subway ride. No waiting room. No $450 bill. Just real psychiatric care delivered to your Brooklyn walkup or your Midtown office.

Frequently asked

NYC Telehealth Psychiatry FAQ

Why are NYC psychiatrist wait times so long?

Demand in NYC vastly outpaces supply — particularly for in-network providers. Most Manhattan psychiatrists have dropped insurance entirely and operate private-pay at $300-$500 per visit, while hospital-based clinics (Mount Sinai, Columbia, NYU, NewYork-Presbyterian) have 8-12 week waitlists. Telehealth practices like ours can scale faster, see patients across all 5 boroughs, and stay in-network — dramatically shortening the wait.

How much does a telehealth psychiatrist cost in NYC?

With in-network insurance, most NYC patients pay a standard specialist copay ($20-$60) per visit. Compare that to private-pay Manhattan psychiatry at $300-$500 per visit. Your exact cost depends on your plan's specialist copay and whether your deductible has been met.

Can I do a video appointment from my Manhattan studio apartment?

Yes — and many patients do. You don't need a dedicated home office. A quiet corner with decent WiFi, headphones, and a door you can close is enough. Many NYC patients take appointments from their bedroom, kitchen, or even a locked bathroom during work-from-home days.

I suspect I have ADHD but I'm high-functioning. Will I be taken seriously?

Yes. A huge portion of adults we evaluate in NYC are high-achievers who spent decades masking ADHD symptoms through intelligence, overworking, and "being a New Yorker." We use validated adult ADHD screeners (ASRS, DIVA-5) to assess symptoms in the context of your full life history — not in the context of how successful you appear on paper.
