How Much Does a Psychiatric Cost?
Experiencing mental health problems can be difficult for an individual and their loved ones and many people turn to inpatient mental health treatment as a way of getting the help they need.
Having said that, one of the biggest questions individuals who are suffering from severe mental illness have is how much such mental health care costs.
Since there are different types of mental health treatments available, the costs vary widely and depend on many factors.

Private Health Insurance
Patients with private health insurance, such as BUPA, may be able to claim the costs of their treatment from their health insurance provider. In order to do this, an authorisation code from your insurer will be required. Please contact your health insurance provider direct to confirm whether your treatment would be covered and to obtain an authorisation code.
Occupational Health Reports
A standard Occupational Health Report costs £950. This price may vary for more complicated cases.
Initial consultations last for one hour and must always take place face-to-face. During the lockdown period, all consultations will be provided online (or by telephone for follow-up appointments). We ask that fees for initial appointments be paid 48 hours in advance.
Initial consultations include 60 minutes with the consultant psychiatrist, a written treatment plan, a letter to the GP (with the patient’s agreement) and a written prescription, if applicable.
- Follow-up consultations may be for half an hour or one hour.
- Telephone consultations can be used only as a follow-up appointment.
Seek Quality over Cost
While cost of therapy is an important factor, it should not be the driving factor for choosing a therapist. Investing in someone who is professionally equipped to provide you with the treatment you need is crucial. If you wish to achieve lasting positive change, finding the right therapist specific to your issues and investing in a more experienced therapist is likely to be more cost-effective.
While the cost of seeing a private therapist may vary depending on various factors, its actual value in improving mental well-being is immeasurable. Investing in your mental health is an investment towards achieving a in happier and healthier future and better quality of life.
