Actually, for an initial appointment with a psychiatrist, at least in this neck of the country, the usual rate is around $375, so the $400 doesn't actually seem all that out of line for an initial appointment. But if all you are needing is something for sleep, a family doctor should be able to help you for much, much less. If you really want to see a psychiatrist though, you need to get your parents' provider list and work off of that. Your T can probably make some recommendation from that list. If not, it will at least narrow it down a bit for you.
