Practice Policies & Appointment Information

At Nurture & Insight Psychiatry, we aim to create a respectful, supportive, and transparent partnership in your care. Please review the following policies to ensure the best experience possible.

Financial Responsibility

By scheduling an appointment, you agree to be financially responsible for services rendered, regardless of insurance coverage. We encourage all clients to verify their behavioral health benefits with their insurance provider in advance.

Receipts for services can be requested at any time to assist with out-of-network reimbursement or personal record keeping.

Physical Assessments

If you are prescribed a controlled substance, a brief in-person physical assessment is required at least every three months for ongoing care and safety monitoring.

Missed Appointments: The full fee for the scheduled service will be charged.
