FURTHER INFORMATION and REFERRALS
If you are interested in our services, want to refer a patient or would like further information, call the MTC at 202-537-6050.
The Meyer Treatment Center (MTC) is a nonprofit mental heath clinic dedicated to providing the highest quality clinical services at an affordable cost to people from Washington, DC and the surrounding communities. The staff provides approximately 10,000 patient therapy hours a year. Clinical services include individual, group, couples and family psychotherapy. Psychiatric evaluations and medication consultations are also available.
Affiliation with the Washington School of Psychiatry (WSP) affords Treatment Center clinicians access to the newest developments in the field. The Center also provides WSP students opportunities to see patients and to integrate clinical theory and practice under close supervision by WSP faculty.
MTC staff members have an average of fourteen years clinical experience. Staff members treat a broad range of psychological difficulties and are capable of providing short- and long-term psychotherapy. The international staff is sensitive to a variety of cultural factors, (e.g. race, ethnicity, class, gender, and sexual orientation) and can provide therapy in English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Hebrew and other languages.
FEES
The MTC is committed to providing patients with access to mental health care. Psychotherapy fees, therefore, are determined on a sliding scale with consideration of each person’s financial circumstances. While many insurance plans cover most or part of these fees, insurance coverage is not a requirement for receiving treatment at the MTC. Many Center patients receive no mental health insurance benefits.
