About Dr. Taylor
Forty years of dedication to the whole person
Dr. Taylor established his private practice in Morristown, NJ in 1983, driven by a belief that excellent psychiatric care must address both the mind and the body. He has remained true to that belief ever since.
"Despite the growing trend toward medication-only psychiatry, Dr. Taylor has remained dedicated to the full therapeutic relationship."
He works with patients and their loved ones from the very first session — taking time to understand situation in life, history, and what a meaningful life looks like for each individual.

FAQs
FAQs About Fees and Payments
The answer is that, Dr. Taylor’s office will electronically submit an insurance claim to your insurance carrier, and request that payment from your insurance carrier be mailed directly to you so that you will always know what payments are made for a treatment session. Dr. Taylor is a “non-participating physician” with all insurance companies, which means that he has not entered into any contracts with insurers who determine his fees. Insurance carriers will typically pay less for non-participating physician services, than participating (also known as “in network”) physician services. Dr. Taylor has “opted out” of medicare and medicaid, which means that he submits no statements to, nor receives any payments from, these insurance programs. However, if you have medicare or medicaid, you may enter into a private contract with Dr. Taylor to pay him directly for treatment services provided. If you have a secondary insurance carrier in additional to medicare, that insurer may reimburse some part of Dr. Taylor’s fee for services.
Dr. Taylor prefers payment in full at the time of services rendered. Payment can be made in the forms of check, credit card, or debit card.
For tax purposes, statements for services rendered to you are always available.
