Although I am very new to all of this, one thing I learned quickly is that many psychiatrists and therapists do not seem to take insurance. My PCP explained to me that the reimbursement rates are very low and that -- unlike other doctors -- they cannot make up for this by high-paying procedures. (Unlike a surgeon, for example, who may get paid very little by the insurance company for office visits, but then gets reimbursed well for surgery).
