FAQs
Questions we hear often

Your first visit is a comprehensive evaluation: what brought you in, your medical and mental health history, current symptoms, and your goals. Together you and Dr. Dorsey agree on a treatment plan, which may include therapy, medication management, or both.
We are in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Ascension, Carelon Behavioral Health, Cigna, Horizon BCBS of New Jersey, Independence BCBS Pennsylvania (Virtual National Network), and Quest Behavioral Health. Benefits vary by plan, so confirm your outpatient mental-health coverage with your insurer or with our office.
