PSYCHOTHERAPY FEES 

  • $160 for a 50-minute individual therapy session​

INSURANCE

I currently accept the following insurance plans:
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO/PPA
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield HMO
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield Indemnity​
  • Allways Health Partners - Mass General Brigham Health Plan employees only  (I am only empaneled with Allways Health Partners Plans who are employees of or receive benefits through one of the affiliated health care organizations with Mass General Brigham.  Please ensure this before reaching out to me if you want to use your health insurance for care, as I am not empaneled on any other Allways Health Partners plans.)

I am also an out of network provider for other insurance plans.  It is your responsibility to find out from your insurance company whether or not they will reimburse you for your psychotherapy sessions.  I will provide you with the necessary paperwork to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. 

Psychotherapy is typically covered by pre-tax Medical Savings Accounts (MSAs).  Check with your carrier or your human resources representative to get more information.  

When speaking with your insurance provider, ask the following questions:
  • Do I have mental health benefits?
  • What is my deductible and has it been met?
  • How many sessions per calendar year does my plan cover?
  • How much does my plan cover for an out-of-network provider?
  • What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
  • Is approval required from my primary care physician?

PAYMENT

I accept the following methods of payment: Cash, Check, Visa, Master Card, Discovery, American Express

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE

Under the No Surprises Act, if you're uninsured, paying privately, or planning to seek reimbursement from your insurance on your own (out-of-network), health care providers must provide you with a Good Faith Estimate of the expected cost of therapy services before you begin care. This estimate isn't a bill — it's meant to help you understand what to expect. You can request one at any time, even after treatment has started, by contacting me directly. If your final bill is $400 or more above your estimate, you have the right to dispute it. For more information, visit: www.cms.gov/nosurprises

CANCELLATION POLICY

I require 24 business hours of notice to cancel your psychotherapy appointment.  If you either miss your appointment or cancel after that time frame, you will be billed $80.
