I think its a few hundred dollars if your insurance doesnt cover it. Most insurances do cover it, i had no problem. Good luck

My insurance covers it BUT there are no psychologists or counselors here that take my insurance SO If I use a counselor its $150. It's $350 to use the psychologist. My insurance will reimburse me but only at like 70%.

will your insurance cover it if you get a referral from your primary doc? They can say it's for stress, anxiety, depression etc ( and who dosn't have a little stress???)

My insurance covered the psych eval even if the surgery was ultimately denied. The insurance company required the eval to be done by a psychiatrist and supplied me with several names to chose from. I believe the cost was around $600 for the test, the evaluation, and the visit to go over the results.

it can be different with each doctor. one quoted me $350, but ended up actually finding a psych dr that worked with my insurance.
