How Telepsychiatry Works

ALL SESSIONS ARE VIRTUAL

Initial Consultation

During our first appointment, I will gather history, evaluate symptoms and formulate a diagnosis. Together we will develop a treatment plan. If medication is indicated, I will explain why a medication is being prescribed, potential side effects and risks/benefits of the treatment.

Follow-ups

These sessions take place after the initial visit to help evaluate and monitor your progress, track improvement of symptoms, establish new goals, and discuss any side effects or questions you may have about your treatment. In order to custom tailor your treatment plan, you may require frequent visits, especially during the first couple of months.

How it works

Insurance and Rates

I’m more than happy to see clients who are covered by insurance and/or who would prefer to pay out of pocket. I’m currently in-network with the following insurance plans:

UnitedHealthcare
Oxford Health Plans
Aetna
UMR
Oscar
Harvard Pilgrim
Medicare/Medicaid
Out-of-pocket

What if you do not take my insurance?

That’s okay! If you would like to see me even though I do not take your insurance, I can provide receipts that you can submit to your insurance provider. If the services are accepted by your insurance, they would then reimburse you at their out-of-network rate.

What are the service rates?

Out of pocket rates are $200 for an initial assessment and $100 per follow-up visit, credit card only.
