Frequently Asked Questions
What is your session format and rates?
Angela Martello, LCSW conducts most sessions virtually. If the client is local and it is a good fit, Angela will meet with clients in a local park. This is called Walk & Talk therapy.
Individual Sessions are 50 min in length unless otherwise specified.
Group sessions are 60 min.
Therapy yields the most consistent results when started on a weekly basis. Angela might also recommend stepping frequency up or down on a case-by-case basis.
Session rate is $175 per session or can be different based on client’s insurance.
Do you take insurance?

-UHC
-Optum
-Connecticare
-Harvard Pilgrim
-UMR
-Aetna
What if you do not take my insurance?
Angela recommends that clients find out if they have out-of-network benefits. If they do, they should call the number on the back of their insurance card and ask the following questions:
Does your plan include “out-of-network” coverage for mental health?
What is your annual deductible for mental health benefits?
What is your co-insurance? (What percentage does the plan cover?)
Is there a limit on the number of sessions your plan will cover per year?
How do I submit for reimbursement?
Angela can provide you with a superbill to submit to your insurance. Also, most HSA/FSA cards are accepted.
Where can I find more therapeutic resources?
