- Therapy in and near Cooper City varies widely. Examples on Psychology Today[2] range from about $90 per session to about $250+ per session. [3]
- Outpatient rehab pricing in South Florida[4] is often quoted by month: about $1,400 to $2,500 for standard outpatient, $3,000 to $10,000 for IOP, and $7,000 to $20,000 for PHP. [5]

Cost anxiety is real when depression and substance use start to overlap. This guide lays out Florida self-pay numbers in plain language, then shows ways to ask for a written estimate and find lower-fee care near Cooper City.
What without insurance means in real life
Many Florida residents seeking addiction care are in one of two groups:
- Uninsured. No health plan is active.
- Self-pay by choice. A person may have insurance, yet wants services billed as self-pay (privacy, network limits, or high deductibles are common reasons). Federal rules tied to the No Surprises Act, explained by the “Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services”,”US federal agency”, include a Good Faith Estimate process for uninsured and self-pay patients. [9]
A Good Faith Estimate is not a bill. It is a written estimate of expected charges for the scheduled service. [10]
If you live near Cooper City[11], cost questions tend to land in two buckets: outpatient psychiatry and therapy, or higher-intensity addiction programs (detox, residential, PHP, IOP) elsewhere in Broward County[12] and nearby areas. [13]
Florida self-pay cost ranges by service
Costs in Florida swing for one simple reason: addiction care can be a single office visit, or a full-time medical program with housing and 24/7 staffing. The ranges below are meant to give you a planning number, not a promise.

| Psychiatry: initial evaluation | About $250 is one local reference point | At Twelve Oaks Psychiatry our initial evaluations start at $250. |

Psychiatry costs. Psychiatry costs include an evaluation, a diagnosis, and follow-up visits for medication checks and symptom tracking. In the Fort Lauderdale[25] area, Psychology Today reports an average psychiatrist session cost of $150. [26]
At Twelve Oaks Psychiatry, led by Michael Hernandez [22], we keep our pricing inline with the industry averages in order to maintain affordability for our clients. An initial visit is $250 and $150 for standard visits.
Therapy costs. Therapy is often the steady weekly cost that supports mood, cravings, and relapse triggers. Concrete local examples show the range: $90 per session for a Cooper City therapist and $250 per session for a Davie psychologist [27]. Open Path lists $40 to $70 per session for individual therapy. [15]
Program costs. Programs (outpatient, IOP, PHP, residential) are where totals rise fast. One South Florida source quotes monthly ranges for outpatient levels of care. [5] One Florida provider cites inpatient monthly ranges that reach into the tens of thousands. [6] A national directory resource lists detox at a per-day rate, which is why a short detox stay can still add up quickly. [16]
Medication costs. Pharmacy prices depend on dose, pharmacy, and coupon. Still, many first-line generics are often under $100 per month, yet long-acting injections can cost far more per dose. [28]
What pushes the total up or down
People ask, “What will this cost me?” A more useful question is, “What parts of care will I pay for, and for how long?”
Level of care. Weekly therapy plus medication checks is a different budget than detox plus residential care. [29]
Bundled versus itemized pricing. Some programs quote one monthly number that includes groups, individual therapy, meds, labs, meals, and housing. Other programs bill those items separately. [30]
Medication choice. Oral generics can be modest in cost, yet long-acting injections may cost over $1,000 per dose before the office injection visit fee. [28]
Region inside Florida. South Florida pricing can differ from other parts of the state for the same level of care. [31]
Lower-cost paths near Cooper City
If you are trying to get help and money is tight, start with steps that lower risk right away, then build the rest of the plan.
