If you're 65 or older, or qualify for Medicare due to disability, your outpatient therapy visits at BETA are covered under Medicare Part B.
Original Medicare doesn't require a referral to see a mental health specialist — you can reach out to BETA directly to get started.
Medicare patients get the same commitment every BETA patient gets: a response same day or within one business day, guaranteed.
Medicare Part B covers a broad range of outpatient mental health services — and BETA's clinicians provide nearly all of them. Here's what's included when you're matched with a BETA therapist:
What outpatient therapy typically costs under Original Medicare
Figures reflect 2026 Original Medicare Part B. If you have a Medicare Advantage or Medigap plan, your costs may be different — our office can help you confirm your specific coverage before your first appointment.
Medicare patients come to BETA for many reasons. These are some of the most common — each one covered under Medicare Part B when treatment is medically necessary.
Worry, restlessness, or health-related anxiety that's become harder to manage on your own. Evidence-based talk therapy can help, often without medication.
Persistent sadness, loss of interest, or low energy that hasn't lifted on its own. Medicare covers an annual depression screening at no cost, plus ongoing therapy.
The loss of a spouse, sibling, close friend, or independence can bring grief that doesn't resolve on its own timeline. Our clinicians specialize in supporting it.
Retirement, relocation, or a shift in family role can bring a real sense of disorientation. Therapy can help you find footing and purpose in a new chapter.
Caring for a spouse or family member is demanding, and caregiver burnout is real. Support for caregivers is one of our most requested areas of care.
Living with a chronic health condition affects mental health too. Our clinicians help patients cope with diagnosis, treatment, and the emotional weight of illness.
Don't see your situation listed? Reach out anyway — these are common starting points, not a complete list.
Boston Evening Therapy Associates has spent years building a practice around one core idea: people shouldn't have to wait, chase, or settle for whoever happens to be available. That commitment doesn't change for Medicare patients — it's the same standard for everyone who reaches out.
Our clinicians are independently licensed professionals — LICSW, LMHC, and doctoral-level — not a call-center triage system. When you contact us, a real person reviews your situation and matches you with a therapist suited to it.
Care decisions are made by clinicians, not driven by which insurance pays the most.
Every inquiry gets a response — same day or the next business day, without exception.
Your therapist is chosen based on your needs and goals — not just calendar availability.
The same simple process every BETA patient goes through — with your Medicare coverage handled along the way.
Call us or fill out our short form. Let us know you have Medicare — there's nothing extra you need to prepare in advance.
We respond same day or within one business day, walk through your Medicare or Medicare Advantage plan, and answer any cost questions upfront.
From our 40+ licensed clinicians, we match you with the one genuinely suited to your needs — not just whoever has an opening.
In-person in Brighton or by telehealth anywhere in Massachusetts — typically scheduled within the same week you reach out.
You won't be routed to a smaller, separate "Medicare-only" pool of providers. All 40+ independently licensed clinicians at BETA — LICSW, LMHC, and doctoral-level — see Medicare patients, so the match is based on what you need, not on your coverage.
Straight answers to the questions we hear most from patients exploring Medicare coverage for therapy.
Reach out today. We'll confirm your Medicare benefits, match you with the right clinician, and typically have your first appointment scheduled within the same week.
