FAQ

I am currently in-network with select private insurance plans, including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield of MA, Carelon Behavioral Health, Cigna, and Quest Behavioral Health, with additional plans expected to be added in Summer 2025.


To streamline the insurance process and improve access to care for you and your family, I’ve partnered with Headway, a secure platform that helps manage scheduling and billing. Please see my Headway profile to view accepted plans and receive an estimate of your session cost. 


If I am not in-network with your insurance provider, Headway can provide a superbill — a detailed receipt that you can submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement.


Please note that my private practice is not currently in-network with any public insurance plans (such as Medicaid or MassHealth). If you are covered by a public insurance plan, I recommend reaching out to your local Community Behavioral Health Center (CBHC), which offers comprehensive services including psychiatric care and therapy. 

  • $600 for a 90-minute intake. 
  • $400 for a 45-minute therapy session.
  • $250 for a 25-minute medication management session.

I understand that navigating insurance can be overwhelming and often a deciding factor in seeking care. Unfortunately, insurance companies can sometimes limit access to high-quality psychiatric treatment by dictating session lengths, treatment plans, or the frequency of visits. These restrictions may not align with what you or your child truly need.


While private pay care may involve a higher upfront cost, choosing to work with a physician trained specifically in adult and child/adolescent psychiatry can save time, reduce frustration, and lead to more effective outcomes in the long run.


If you're exploring reimbursement options or have questions about submitting superbills, I’m happy to help guide you through the process.

Yes, I do offer in-person appointments! While virtual care can be convenient, I understand that it’s not ideal for everyone. In-person sessions are available at my office in Andover, MA, though please note that these appointments are currently booking out to July 2025.

Yes! All virtual visits are conducted through a HIPAA-compliant version of Zoom, ensuring your privacy and confidentiality are protected.
