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?

Yes! Angela is currently paneled with the following insurance companies:

-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:

  1.  Does your plan include “out-of-network” coverage for mental health?

  2.  What is your annual deductible for mental health benefits?

  3.  What is your co-insurance? (What percentage does the plan cover?)

  4.  Is there a limit on the number of sessions your plan will cover per year?

  5. 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?
