Frequently Asked Questions and Fees

Online OTs is an occupational therapy telehealth practice. We specialize in Habit Reversal Training and CBIT for Tourette Syndrome and other Tic Disorders, Functional Neurological Disorder, and Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors.


Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) is a research-backed and highly effective program developed to treat  vocal and motor tics. Online OTs has adapted CBIT to address a wide array of repetitive behaviors including those that harm skin, nails, and hair.  Online OTs'  therapy approach enables helpful strategies to be put immediately into place. 


Our occupational therapy services are available via telehealth throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, New York, and Vermont. Due to federal licensing laws, we are not able to work with patients residing in other states or countries. Video conferencing is via a HIPPA compliant version of Google Meet.

Parents are required to be present for all telehealth visits with minors.


As of 02/01/23, our private pay fees are:

Evaluation: $239

Therapy and Training Session: $196


Most patients complete therapy within five to ten sessions. 



Online OTs accepts Mass General Brigham Health Plan (formerly known as Allways Health Partners) and Blue Cross Blue Shield.

See below for information regarding Network Gap Exception reimbursement from other insurers.


Online OTs treats conditions for which there are very few trained health professionals. If you are not able to find someone in-network who specializes in tics or BFRB (or if the waiting list is unreasonable) you may be eligible for a Network Gap Exception. Ask your PCP for a referral to Online OTs and then request pre-authorization from your insurer. Please note that all patients with a gap exception and/or those with insurance other than BCBS PPO and MGBHP are considered private pay and are charged for services in full. You will be provided documentation to then seek reimbursement from your insurer.
