I am currently in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS), Optum Behavioral Health (which covers Harvard Pilgrim, Mass General Brigham/Allways, United Behavioral Health, and Health Plans Inc), Cigna/Evernorth, Tufts Health Plan (commercial products), Aetna, Fallon Health (Medicaid, Medicare, and commercial), Wellsense (SCO, HMO, Qualified Health Plan, and Mass Health), and Massachusetts Behavioral Health Partnership (MBHP). For clients who are not covered by an insurance carrier with which I am in-network, I offer private pay therapy. I am willing to lower my full rate for private pay clients who require a reduced rate in order to be able to afford therapy due limited disposable income, debt, and/or lack of access to insurance.
I believe that all people should be able to access the health services they need, including therapy, and I am committed to making my practice as accessible as possible to anyone who feels that I am the right therapist for them. If you are interested in working with me and have questions or concerns about affordability, I encourage you to schedule a telephone consult with me so that we can discuss together.
