FAQS

Do you accept my insurance?

Insurances I accept: Blue Cross Blue Shield, Mass General Brigham Health Plan, Medicare, Tufts, Wellpoint, and Wellsense.

I can also bill as an "out of network provider" if your insurance plan offers these benefits. I can also supply a super bill.

If you’re unsure of what your out-of-network benefits are, you can ask your insurance representative the following questions...

How are sessions conducted?

Our sessions are conducted in-person in Downtown Northampton, Massachusetts or online via a HIPAA compliant video conferencing platform, ensuring confidentiality and security.

What are your rates for self pay?

Rates for self pay are $150 for individual sessions.

Reduced Fee: I have a limited number of reduced fee spots in my practice. Please email me directly to inquire about the availability of reduced fee spots. You can refer to Alexis J. Cunningham’s “Green Bottle” sliding scale model.

Payment is due at the time of service and can be made via credit/debit card, HSA/FSA card, check, or cash.

How long are the sessions?

Sessions are 53 minutes. I typically meet with clients on a weekly basis, but depending on the circumstances and your needs, we may meet twice weekly or biweekly. The length of our therapeutic work may vary based on your individual needs.
