Do I need a referral?
Clients can self-refer and do not require a doctor's referral. Some insurance plans may require a referral to provide coverage. Please check with your provider regarding your specific plan.

Most clients prefer to have sessions in their own home. This is typically the most comfortable and natural environment. Clinic based sessions may be an option. Please inquire for more information.
What does a session look like?
For children, sessions are play-based and inspired by the child's interests. Activities are set up to incorporate the child's goals and include as many practice opportunities of targeted skills as possible.
