Cost of Services
COVERAGE
In-Network Services:
For Rhode Island clients, I am in network with:
Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS)
Medicare (includes traditional Medicare and BCBS Medicare)
​
For Massachusetts clients, I am in network with:
Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS)
Aetna
Harvard Pilgrim Health Care
Medicare (includes traditional Medicare, BCBS Medicare and Aetna Medicare)
​
Prior to your first appointment please call your insurance to verify your specific plan and whether I am in network. I encourage you to also familiarize yourself with details of your plan (what your co-pay and deductible is if any, etc.).
​​​​
Out-of-Network Services
At this time, I am out of network with insurances other than those listed above. Most insurances offer out-of-network benefits which may range from 50-100% reimbursement. If you elect to use this benefit, payment would be due at the time of our session and I would provide you with a superbill (a receipt with necessary information for insurance) and you would submit it to your insurance. Please contact your insurance company to learn about your out of network benefit.
Private Pay/Self-Pay Services: If you'd like to pay privately, this means that neither I or you would be filing claims to insurance. If you choose to work with me via private pay, your full session payment will be due at the time of the session. I accept credit card.
​
FEES
For Individual:
$280 for Intake Evaluation (first session; 60 minutes)
$230 for each follow-up session (50 minutes)
​​
For Group Therapy:
I hold a Chronic Pain Management Group, and estimate offering my next group in Fall 2025. Cost of services will be posted then.

General Information about Billing and Fees:
​
The No Surprises Act: You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” which estimates how much your medical care will cost. Under the No Surprises Act, healthcare providers are required to provide patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for total expected costs of any non-emergency items or services.
You can always request a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. Your healthcare provider should give you a Good Faith Estimate in writing. Make sure to save a copy of your Good Faith Estimate.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
