FAQ

​

Beginning:

 

Finding the right therapist is important and can sometimes be difficult. For those interested in learning more about me, how I practice and whether we may be a good fit,  I offer a free  initial  20-minute phone consultation.  ​If we do decide to work with one another, I will ask you to complete initial paperwork prior to our first intake session.

Cost:

​

While therapy can be costly, I believe it is an investment in one's quality of life.  I accept the following insurance carriers:

​​

• Aetna

• All Savers

• Harvard Pilgrim

• Nippon

• Oscar

• Optum

• Oxford Health

• United Healthcare

• UHC Student Resources

• Wellfleet

​

For all other insurance carriers, I am an out-of-network provider, so clients will pay for their sessions up front and get reimbursed by their insurance providers on the back end.  Rates can be discussed during initial consultations, and I can offer sliding scale rates, as I strongly believe therapy should be accessible to all. 

 

In order to determine whether your insurance carrier has out-of-network benefits and what the reimbursement rate is,  call them directly and ask:

 

• Do I have out-of-network benefits?

• What is my out of network deductible?

• What percentage do you reimburse for outpatient individual therapy after the deductible is met? 

• How many mental health sessions per year does my plan cover? 

• So just to make sure...my therapist is charging x amount, what is the maximum I can get reimbursed?

If for any reason you are unable to make your session please let me know by emailing, calling, or texting.  There will be no charge for any cancellations or changes made 48 hours (2 days) in advance of your session.  

 

When prior notification is not given there will be a charge of the agreed upon fee.
