Crisis lines, cheaper medication, affordable lab testing, and low-cost therapy — including things we don’t provide ourselves.
Affordable Psych is not emergency care. We cannot respond to urgent messages outside of appointments. If you need help now, use one of these — they are free, confidential, and staffed around the clock.

A prescription from us is only affordable if you can afford to fill it. Both of these are free to use, and neither requires insurance.
GoodRx shows what the same prescription costs at different pharmacies near you, and gives you a coupon to bring along. The spread between two pharmacies on the same street is often startling — the same generic can be $12 at one and $60 at another.
You use it instead of insurance, not alongside it. For a generic antidepressant on a high-deductible plan, the GoodRx price is frequently lower than what you’d pay running it through your benefits. It’s worth checking every time, especially when we start something new.
Check a price at GoodRx →Mark Cuban’s pharmacy sells generics at what they pay for them, plus a flat 15% markup, a $5 pharmacy fee and $5.25 shipping — and they publish that arithmetic for every drug. No insurance, no membership, no coupon.
It works best for maintenance medication you take every day and can plan ahead for, since it ships to you rather than being ready this afternoon. Several common psychiatric generics are on their list. If you’d like us to send a prescription there, just ask.
Search their prices →We provide medication management, not therapy. For many people the two together work better than either alone, so here is the most useful option we know of for finding therapy without insurance.
Open Path is a nonprofit network of therapists who agree to see members at a reduced rate. After a one-time $65 lifetime membership, individual sessions run $40 to $70, couples and family sessions $40 to $80, and sessions with a supervised student intern $30.
It’s designed for people who have no insurance, or whose plan’s mental health coverage isn’t usable in practice. There’s no formal income cutoff — the test is whether you can afford the going rate for therapy where you live. Many of their therapists work by video, so you aren’t limited to your own town.
Find a therapist →This one we use inside the practice. It’s here because patients ask where to get it, and because the cash prices are usually better than the alternatives.
Fullscript is our supplement and lab partner — both run through the same platform, so there’s one account rather than two.
Supplements. If one is worth taking, quality matters, and retail prices for practitioner-grade brands are steep. Our dispensary passes on 25% off everything in the catalogue. Supplements are optional and they are not a substitute for treatment — we’ll tell you plainly when we think one is worth your money and when it isn’t.
Lab testing. We can order lab work at published cash prices rather than sending you through a hospital system that bills you later at a number nobody could tell you in advance. Useful when something in your history suggests a physical contributor worth ruling in or out — thyroid, B12, iron, vitamin D, metabolic markers. We only order labs when there’s a specific question the result would answer, and you’ll know the cost before anything is drawn. None of it is required to be treated.
How we’re paid on this one: Fullscript pays us about 10% of what you spend through our dispensary. You’d rather know that than find it out later, and we’d rather tell you. Nothing about your treatment plan changes based on whether you buy anything, and you’re free to take any recommendation and fill it wherever you like.
Visit our Fullscript dispensary →To be clear about who pays whom: we earn nothing from GoodRx, Cost Plus Drugs or Open Path — they’re here because they’re genuinely useful and we have no relationship with any of them. Fullscript pays us roughly 10% of dispensary orders, noted above; we use the same platform to order labs at published cash prices. Figures quoted on this page are what each service published at the time of writing and can change.
