Questions
What therapeutic approaches do you use?
We employ evidence-based methods including CBT, ACT, CPT, and PE therapy validated by clinical research. Treatment plans integrate these approaches while respecting individual client preferences and cultural backgrounds.
How do diagnostic evaluations work?
Evaluations begin with family consultation to tailor assessments. Testing includes clinical interviews and standardized measures administered over several hours with breaks. Families receive comprehensive reports explaining findings and recommendations.
Do you accept insurance?
We operate as out-of-network providers offering detailed superbill documentation for potential insurance reimbursement. Specific insurance questions should be directed to our billing coordinator.
How can I prepare for therapy sessions?
Arrive with any relevant medical/educational records. For children, explain visits using non-threatening language about 'meeting someone who helps kids learn and feel better' rather than medical terminology.
What ages do you treat?
Our services span from early childhood (age 3) through adulthood. Specialized programs address developmental needs across preschool, school-age, adolescent, and adult populations with appropriate therapeutic modalities.
How do you handle school collaboration?
We maintain active communication with educational staff while respecting confidentiality. Our team develops classroom strategies and facilitates accommodations through formal documentation and IEP/504 plan support.
