Appointments

I offer 55-minute telehealth sessions for people living in Massachusetts (per my state licensure). You may fill out the form below or reach out via e-mail to Erica@EricaThomasLMHC.com or by phone at 774-307-9502 to request a consultation. At that time I would be happy to answer any questions about my work or the therapeutic process. I will also use this time to learn about your needs and a brief history so that we can determine fit for ongoing care.

Sessions are typically weekly when beginning therapy, in order to ensure we can build a relationship and work towards your goals. If it makes sense to reduce or increase session frequency, we can have that discussion at any point during your treatment.

Insurance:

I currently accept Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts. Though most BCBS plans cover telehealth counseling, note that it some do not and it is important to confirm coverage with your insurance provider before your first appointment.

Private Pay and Out-of-Network:

Paying privately allows you to have unrestricted treatment and maintain confidentiality from your insurance provider.

I am also an Out-of-Network Provider, which means that you may be able to seek reimbursement for our time together from your insurance provider. This can be achieved by first confirming your out of network coverage, and then submitting a superbill to your insurance provider after you have paid in full. Depending on your out-of-network benefits, your insurance company may reimburse you partially or fully for our visits.

If you would like to use your out-of-network benefits, I encourage you to reach out to your insurance company first to confirm coverage. You will want to ask them questions such as:

“What are my out-of-network benefits for outpatient mental health counseling?”

“Do I need a referral to see an out-of-network provider?:

“How do I submit claim forms for reimbursement?”

Private Pay Fee: $150

Each service is 55 minutes and facilitated via telehealth.
