I checked out the Psychodidae images at Bugguide.net. Most images there, except nr. 1 and 3. are likely to show the common drain fly species, the same as your image shows.

This US site lists the three pest species. Two of them are withing Psychoda, and one is Telmatoscopus albipunctatus, which seems to be a synonym for Clogmia albipunctata, the latter being the valid species name based on faunaeur.org. This means that this species is present in the US.
