i afford patients 30 minutes. if folks are doing super well the session may take 10 minutes but i allow 30 minutes. if not going well or we are making lots of med changes we use all 30. some sessions are 60 minutes which depends on staffing levels at my office the patient what day of the week it is. but 30 is average. also some docs at big practices or public practices aren't their own boss and are forced to see a patient every 15 minutes which i personally think is pushing it. in areas low on psychiatrists this is common too as the idea is that 15 minutes of psych care is better than zero. it does depend on many factors.
if you see a patient for meds only (with someone else as psychotherapist) how many minutes do you spend with a patient?
