Our Services
Consultation
(Free 15 minute call)
We offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation to help you determine if our practice is the right fit for your needs. During this brief call, Katie will discuss your reasons for seeking care, answer any questions you may have, and explain what to expect from treatment. This is a no-obligation opportunity to explore whether moving forward with an intake appointment feels right for you.
Initial Intake Assessment
(60-90 minutes)
The initial intake assessment is a comprehensive 60 to 90-minute evaluation that lays the foundation for your care. During this session, Katie will review your full psychiatric and medical history, current symptoms, and any past treatments. She will explore your mental health concerns, lifestyle factors, and relevant psychosocial background. Together, you will discuss your goals and begin developing an individualized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
Follow-Up Appointments (30 - 45 minutes)
Follow-up sessions are tailored to your ongoing needs and typically last 15 to 45 minutes. These appointments focus on medication management, monitoring progress, addressing new or continuing concerns, and adjusting your treatment plan as needed.

We work closely with you to understand your symptoms and provide an accurate diagnosis, ensuring you receive the care and support that’s right for you. -
We provide individualized medication management, psychotherapy, or a combination of both—tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Medication management involves a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and ongoing monitoring to ensure that any prescribed medications are safe, effective, and well-suited to your situation. This includes discussing benefits, potential side effects, and making adjustments as needed to support your mental health and overall well-being.
Psychotherapy offers a supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, develop coping skills, and work through challenges. Drawing on evidence-based approaches—including techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)—therapy is personalized to help you build resilience, manage emotions, and foster lasting change.
Whether you choose medication, therapy, or both, the goal is to provide compassionate, collaborative care designed specifically for you.
-
As a telehealth-only practice, all appointments are held virtually—allowing you to access care from the comfort and privacy of your own home, with no need to commute. We serve clients throughout Massachusetts via secure, HIPAA-compliant video sessions. Appointments are available by request, with flexible scheduling options, including evenings and weekends, to meet the needs of busy lives.
-
We are an out-of-network provider and do not accept insurance directly. This allows me to offer highly personalized care without the limitations that insurance companies can place on treatment—such as session length, frequency, or diagnosis requirements.
By working outside of insurance, we are able to focus entirely on what’s clinically best for you, not what’s reimbursable. Many clients choose to use their out-of-network benefits and we are happy to provide a superbill (an itemized receipt) that you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement.
-
Before scheduling an intake assessment, you'll have a free 15-minute consultation with us to ensure the practice is a good fit for your needs. During this call, we will ask about your reasons for seeking care, review any current medications, and determine whether her services align with your goals. If it's a good match, you'll receive consent forms to complete before your first appointment. Once the consultation is complete, your intake will be scheduled.
