FAQs

  • Verita Psychiatry is currently out-of-network with all insurance plans. We're a self-pay practice, meaning payment is collected at the time of your visit. However, many insurance plans offer out-of-network mental health benefits, and we'll provide a superbill after each appointment that you can submit to your insurer for potential reimbursement.

  • Our initial psychiatric evaluation (75 minutes) is $350. Follow-up appointments range from $150 to $250 depending on the time scheduled. We're committed to transparent pricing — no surprise bills.

  • We accept credit and debit cards, HSA/FSA cards, and Zelle. Payment is due at the time of service.

  • You can reach us anytime via our contact page or email. We aim to respond quickly—usually within one business day.

  • Yes! We're currently welcoming new patients. You can request an appointment through our patient portal or reach out through the contact page with any questions.

  • A superbill is a detailed receipt we provide after each visit. It includes your diagnosis codes, procedure codes, provider information, and service details — everything your insurance company needs to process an out-of-network claim. Apps like Reimbursify can help you submit it quickly.

  • Yes. Telehealth services are available in accordance with Virginia law. You must be physically located in Virginia at the time of your appointment unless other arrangements have been made in advance.

  • Verita is physician-owned, which means care decisions are made by Dr. Roy, not a corporate structure. She takes a collaborative, whole-life approach, focusing on more than symptom management and working with each patient as a full person.
