How long are sessions and how frequently will my child be seen for therapy?
Therapy sessions are usually 45-60 minutes. Children are seen on a weekly basis during the initial course of treatment. After approximately 6-8 sessions the frequency of visits is usually decreased.
Do you have evening or weekend hours?
Yes, evening and weekend hours are available
Can you guarantee that treatment will help my child?
I can assure you that I've worked with many children over the years and there have only been a handful that have not shown improvement under my care. But I can not guarantee that treatment will help your child.
Do you prescribe medication?
I do not prescribe medication but will work collaboratively with your child's pediatrician or psychiatrist to coordinate medication when indicated. I can help you determine if medications might assist with your child's treatment plan.
Do you accept insurance?
Insurance companies consider me an "out-of-network" provider. I will give you a payment receipt and the necessary paperwork that you can submit to your insurance company. In addition, I will also communicate with your insurance company (with your permission) if this is a prerequisite of them reimbursing you. I highly recommend that you contact your insurance company BEFORE your first appointment so that you can anticipate the out-of-pocket costs of treatment.
