  • Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.

    You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

    Under the law, health care providers need to give 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 the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

    • If you schedule a health care item or service at least 3 business days in advance, make sure your health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 1 business day after scheduling. If you schedule a health care item or service at least 10 business days in advance, make sure your health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 3 business days after scheduling. You can also ask any health care provider or facility for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you do, make sure the health care provider or facility gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing within 3 business days after you ask.

    • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

    • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises/consumers, email FederalPPDRQuestions@cms.hhs.gov, or call 1- 800-985-3059.

Out-of-network/Private Pay Clients: Tier System

  • Radiance Tier (Premium Rate)

    Rate: $230 (45 min)

    For clients who are financially abundant, comfortably resourced, or who receive partial or full PPO/POS reimbursement.
    If you have the ability to invest generously in your well-being — with regular travel, self-care, hobbies, and leisure within reach — this tier sustains your healing while also helping expand access for others in the community.

    Choosing this tier is both an investment in your growth and a way to support equitable care for those with fewer financial resources.

  • Accessible Glow Tier

    Rate: Reduced Fee - case by case (45 min)

    For clients who are financially stable but not in a place of abundance — those who manage essential expenses with care, enjoy some discretionary comforts, and may rely on PPO or POS reimbursement to make therapy sustainable.

    This tier is ideal if you’re able to invest in therapy but need a more flexible rate to remain consistent in the work. A limited number of reduced-fee spots are offered to support accessibility and dignity in care.

    (Specific rates are discussed together and tailored to your circumstances.)

How to Navigate Insurance

Understanding your insurance plan can feel overwhelming. Here’s a simple guide to help you know what to expect:

    • PPO Plans: Flexible. You can see any licensed therapist, even if they’re out-of-network. You pay the therapist’s full fee upfront, then submit a claim for partial reimbursement (usually 35–80%). Some plans require you to meet a deductible before benefits begin.

    • HMO Plans: Limited to in-network therapists only. You typically pay a copay or coinsurance at each session, and your therapist bills insurance directly.

  • When calling, have my zip code (02445 – Brookline) and therapy codes handy: 90834 (45 min) and 90837 (60 min).

    Ask:

    • Do I have an out-of-network deductible? How much, and when does it reset?

    • What is the allowable rate for CPT codes 90834 and 90837?

    • What percentage of the cost is covered (coinsurance), or what is my copay?

    • How many sessions per year are covered?

    • How do I submit claims for out-of-network benefits?

  • You’ll receive a monthly “superbill” from me to submit online or by mail. Apps like Reimbursify or Better make the process easier.

    • If a session is $230 and your plan reimburses 60%, you’ll get $138 back, paying $92 out of pocket.

    • If a session is $230 and your plan reimburses 70%, you’ll get $161 back, paying $69 out of pocket.

    • If a session is $200 and your plan reimburses 60%, you’ll get $120 back, paying $90 out of pocket.

    • If a session is $200 and your plan reimburses 70%, you’ll get $140 back, paying $60 out of pocket.

  • You may also choose to pay out-of-pocket without involving insurance, which can offer more privacy and flexibility.

💬 TIP: Insurance representatives may downplay out-of-network benefits.

Stay persistent—it can significantly lower your therapy costs.

Reduced Fee/Sliding Scale Availability

I offer a small number of reduced fee slots, Accessible Glow Tier, for clients with financial need. Availability depends on my current caseload and capacity. If you’d like to explore a reduced rate, please reach out — we can discuss what may be possible during your consultation call.

My commitment is to make therapy as accessible as possible while maintaining the depth, presence, and care required for meaningful healing.

Cancellations & Rescheduling

Life happens — and I also reserve your appointment time just for you.

I ask for a minimum of 24 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Notice may be given by email or text me as soon as you can so we can discuss options.

I understand that emergencies, illness, and urgent situations arise. These are handled case by case, and I may request documentation when appropriate. If a session is canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice and is not due to an emergency, a late-cancellation fee will be charged.

If we’re able to reschedule within the same week, I may be able to waive or reduce the late-cancellation fee. This isn’t guaranteed, but I do my best to offer flexibility when possible while still honoring the time I set aside for each client.

My goal is to support continuity of care, respect your needs, and maintain a schedule that allows all clients to receive consistent, grounded support.

Your time and my time are both meaningful — we hold that with care.
