Do you accept insurance?
We do not participate directly with insurance. However, we do offer an invoice for out of network benefits, which typically reimburse anywhere from 50-100 percent after meeting a certain deductible.
We have partnered with a company that provides this tool to help you receive basic information regarding your OON benefits. However, please contact your insurance company if you want the most accurate information. The amount you are reimbursed might vary depending on your location and the credentials of your TMP clinician. We understand insurance can be tricky. We have outlined some questions to ask your insurance company to receive the most accurate information. Please ask us if you need any help with this process.

Where are your Clinicians licensed?
The majority of our therapists/clinicians are licensed in NY and NJ. In addition, individual therapists/clinicians are also licensed in states such as CT, NC, CA, and FL. When you inquire, please ask us if we can accommodate your state of residency.
What can I expect from my first appointment?
At your first visit, your clinician will want to learn more about what brought you to treatment and your personal, family, and medical history. Together, we will work to identify what you value most, and what is getting in the way of your progress and life satisfaction. You will also have time to ask any questions you may have. Toward the end of the appointment, you and your clinician will formulate a treatment plan that feels appropriate, convenient, and workable with your life circumstances.
How often will I need to see my therapist / clinician?
Both the length and frequency of treatment will depend on your challenges and goals, your provider’s recommendation, as well as scheduling and availability. You and your clinician will periodically check in to ensure that your treatment remains productive.
Medication visits usually last 30 minutes and psychotherapy visits are usually 45 minutes. Couples, family, and group therapy typically last longer.
When are your therapists / clinicians available?
Our therapists/clinicians have availability for both in-person and virtual visits. Availability varies depending on the therapist/clinician, but we do our best to accommodate you expeditiously within the same week of your request. Our therapists/clinicians see patients Monday-Sunday with daytime and evening hours, depending on the therapist/clinician.
Are there issues you don’t treat?
At TMP we do not offer emergency treatment. If you need immediate care, you might consider accessing an emergency room or other crisis center. While our therapists/clinicians have expertise in working with individuals on a wide range of issues including difficulties with substance use, we don’t provide specialized treatment focused on alcohol or drug addiction.
