Our services and polices are easy to understand. The work is, however, courageous.

At NYCAP we provide 45 minute weekly psychotherapy to adults 18+ who reside in NY or NJ.

We are a remote only practice, all sessions are conducted via a HIPAA compliant, web-based telehealth platform.

The out of pocket fee is $175 per session.

For those in who need a lower fee, we offer a no questions asked sliding scale fee structure. At this time our $90 and $125 rates are available.

We accept several commercial insurance plans, and some managed Medicaid/marketplace plans.

If you are using in-network insurance, we will verify your coverage and benefits, and outline what you should expect to pay - that may be a copay, or a rate billed rate based on your insurance plan, if you have a deductible.

Our sessions are weekly - we do not work with folks on a biweekly or monthly basis.

Insurance

We accept most Aetna (including Student Plans), Anthem (BCBS), Humana, Optum (United Healthcare, Oxford, Oscar), MetroPlus Health and Wellfleet commercial insurance plans.

Our team will review your policy and let you know of your estimated costs before your first session. Fees for in-network clients may not match the sliding-scale above.

If you have other health insurance, you may be eligible for out of network benefits. We will provide a monthly superbill for you to submit to your insurance provider.

Sliding Scale

NYCAP was the first in NYC to offer a no-questions asked sliding scale fee policy. Since our founding we have been committed to providing quality care, without having to demonstrate need. We trust in you to pay what you can. And now that we accept insurance most folks pay even less than our sliding scale rates.

We do not ask for proof of income when selecting your fee level. We ask that you pay at the highest rate you can afford and feels right to you; doing so allows us to provide psychotherapy to a diverse array of folks and continue to provide sustainable psychotherapy to the community at large. The fee is due at time of treatment and is payable by credit or debit card.

We can only support a limited number of appointment slots for each price point. In order to maintain our sustainability and hold each of us accountable we do ask that if you are able to afford a higher fee level, please pay at that rate, as it allows the folks who need help and need a lower fee to see someone in a timely manner. Remember, seeking treatment is an investment in yourself.
