Services
Services offered include Diagnostic Evaluation, Follow-Up Visits, Medication Management, and EMDR therapy. All services begin with a Diagnostic Evaluation.
I accept some insurances, currently Blue Cross and Blue Shield and Tufts/Harvard Pilgrim. I have also listed out of pocket fees below.

Diagnostic Evaluation
This is a comprehensive conversation with the purpose of learning about your "chief complaint" or what's getting in the way of your optimal functioning. We'll discuss such things as current functioning, past functioning, medical history, social history, and your mental health goals. As part of the diagnostic evaluation, If helpful and with your consent, I will reach out to psychiatric and medical providers, school personnel, medical professionals, and others, for more information. The diagnostic evaluation is 60-90 minutes. $275.

Medication Management
Medication management is a follow-up or check-in to see how you are responding to medication. We will consider desired effect, side effects if any, dose, and duration. It's also a time to discuss how you're functioning overall, and if desired, for learning or reviewing therapeutic techniques and strategies. Medication management appointments are for either 15 or 30 minutes. $100/$200.

EMDR Therapy
EMDR is a specialized therapy, biologically based, unlike traditional talk therapy. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR is a short-term therapy, with an average of 8 to 12 sessions. It's most effective if done twice weekly as 90 minute sessions; however, as little as 60 minutes with a minimum of once weekly is also effective.
90 minutes: $250. 60 minutes: $200.

Follow-Up Visits or Short-Term Therapy
This is one or several 30 or 45 minute (non EMDR) short- term therapy sessions, to follow-up from the diagnostic evaluation, to work on specific goals, or to explore strategies and techniques to generally improve your mental health. 30 minutes: $150. 45 minutes: $200.
