Frequently Asked Questions

Roots Above Counseling provides therapeutic mental health services for individuals.

You can book an appointment with Roots Above Counseling by calling our office, sending us an email, or by filling out the contact form on our website.

Roots Above Counseling offers individual counseling services for adults 18+. We are offering appointments by telehealth only at this time.

For virtual sessions I use a HIPPA compliant video platform to meet clients. I am currently only able to meet with clients who are located in MA due to licensure requirements.

The following insurance plans are accepted by Roots Above Counseling:

BCBS of MA

Aetna

Tufts

Harvard Pilgrim

United Behavioral Health

Mass General Brigham Health Plan

Please reach out to us directly if you are unsure about your coverage.

We also accept private pay.

If you have insurance from one of the above plans, you are encouraged to call the member services number on the back of your insurance card and ask the following questions to confirm if there are any additional costs:

1. What kind of coverage do I have for mental health care with a provider who is in network?
2. Do I have an annual deductible I need to meet for mental health services before things are covered? 
3. What is my co-insurance and/or co-payment amount? 
4.  Is there a limit on the number of sessions my plan will cover per year?

If you choose not to utilize insurance to cover the cost of sessions, the out-of-pocket cost per session is $150.

I offer a complimentary 15-minute intro call where we will discuss what you are hoping to gain from therapy, as well as my therapeutic style. We will then mutually determine if it feels like your needs align with my skill set. If we decide to move forward in working together, we will maintain ongoing communication about the therapeutic relationship, making any changes as needed along the way.
