Will you help me with insurance claim and paperwork?(*)
​
Yes! Being out-of-network actually comes with great benefits for you—it allows us to provide the highest quality care without insurance-driven restrictions. (Learn more about how this benefits you here.

We make insurance easy and stress-free—we partner with a company that handles claim submissions for you, completely free of charge! You focus on your child’s progress, and we take care of the paperwork.

​​What can I expect in the first session?
​
In the first session, we focus on getting to know your child and understanding their unique needs. The evaluation includes:
-
Discussion with parents – We’ll talk about your child’s development, challenges, and goals.
-
Observations & assessments – Our therapist will engage your child in play-based activities to assess their skills.
-
Next steps – We’ll share initial insights and discuss a personalized therapy plan if needed.
Our goal is to make this a comfortable, supportive experience for both you and your child!
​
How often will my child need therapy?
​
The frequency of therapy depends on your child’s individual needs and goals. After the initial evaluation, our therapist will recommend a schedule that provides the right level of support.
This could be once a week, twice a week or periodic follow-up session. We’ll work with you to find the best plan to help your child thrive!
​
Can I stay in the session with my child?
​
Parent involvement is very important in the therapy process! Depending on your child’s needs, you may actively participate, observe, or wait nearby in the waiting room. However, we do not offer drop-off sessions - your presence and support make a big difference!
