INSURANCE, REIMBURSEMENT AND COST

Insurance typically cover services for psychotherapy. However, I strongly encourage you to check with your insurance provider to ensure that your specific plan provides coverage.  It will also be helpful to find out if your insurance has a copayment, deductible, or coinsurance.  You will be required to pay your co-payment at each session.  Please be aware that you will be financially responsible for services not covered by your insurance.  My practice takes the following insurance:    

Aetna

Absolute Total Care

Anthem

Mass General Brigham Partner 

          Blue Cross Blue Shield 

        Carelon         

        Cigna

Private Pay

 

  I accept cash, check, credit card, venmo, cash app and flex spending accounts.  I ask that on your first initial appointment you provide a copy of the front and back of your insurance card(s). Please keep in mind that it is important that you keep me informed of any changes in coverage. Please be aware that you would be responsible for non-covered services.  I make every effort to inform you of your benefits, but you are responsible for understanding how your insurance works and any amounts that are not covered.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the office.  

  

PAY OUT OF POCKET

I also accept private pay.  If you carry a different insurance, you would have to pay out of pocket, but some insurance companies provide out-of-network benefits and might reimburse some to all of your session.  It may be helpful for you to check with your insurance prior to your visit.    If you choose to pay out of pocket, the fees are highlighted below. 

Sliding fee scale:  A sliding scale fee could be applied, but this will be based on income, situation, and/or circumstances.
