What to expect

A clear, collaborative process designed to provide clarity and direction.

I use a thoughtful, structured approach to evaluations and therapy so families understand what's happening at each step, why it matters, and how results can be used moving forward.
Initial consultation
We begin with an initial consultation to discuss concerns, relevant history, and goals. This conversation helps determine the most appropriate services and ensures the process is tailored to the individual.
Assessment or Therapy
For evaluations, assessment is thoughtfully selected based on referral questions and may include cognitive, academic, attention, executive functioning, and social-emotional measures. For therapy, sessions focus on building understanding, coping skills, and emotional regulation within a collaborative, strengths-based framework.
Integration and interpretation
Results are carefully integrated to form a clear, cohesive understanding of strengths, challenges, and patterns. The emphasis is on meaningful interpretation, not just test scores or diagnostic labels.
Feedback and next steps
Findings are reviewed in detail during a feedback session, with time for questions and discussion. Families leave with clear explanations and practical recommendations that can be used at home, school, work, or in therapy moving forward.
fees and transparency
Clear, upfront pricing so you know what to expect.

I am a private-pay practice and do not bill insurance directly. Fees are discussed in advance so families can make informed decisions, and there are no hidden costs or surprise charges. When appropriate, I can provide documentation for out-of-network reimbursement. Specific recommendations and costs are discussed during the initial consultation so there are no suprises.
