Question 4

What is your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

Therapy: We require at least 48 business hours notice (Monday through Friday) to cancel or reschedule a therapy appointment. Cancellations with less than 48 hours notice, or missed appointments, will be charged the full session fee. Exceptions may be made for extenuating circumstances beyond your control.Assessments: Because our psychologists and psychometrists block a full day for each assessment client, we require at least 72 hours notice to cancel or reschedule. Cancellations with less than 72 hours notice are subject to a $500 late cancellation fee.

Question 5

Can you help with school accommodations or IEP/504 recommendations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our evaluations commonly include individualized recommendations for school accommodations, intervention supports, IEP planning, 504 plans, executive functioning supports, and classroom strategies. We aim to provide practical recommendations that families and schools can use collaboratively to support success across settings.

Question 6

What is the difference between a school evaluation and a private evaluation?

Accepted Answer

School evaluations are completed through the public school system to determine whether a student qualifies for special education services within the school setting. Private evaluations are often more comprehensive and individualized, allowing more time to understand the “big picture” of a child’s strengths, challenges, learning profile, emotional functioning, and overall needs.

Many families seek private evaluations when they are looking for clearer answers, more in-depth recommendations, diagnostic clarification, or support that goes beyond school eligibility alone. Private evaluations can also be shared with schools, doctors, therapists, and other providers to help support accommodations, treatment planning, and intervention services when appropriate.

Question 7

When should I consider a psychological or educational assessment?

Accepted Answer

An evaluation may be worth considering if your child is experiencing ongoing challenges that aren’t fully explained or addressed by current strategies. Families often seek assessments when there are concerns around learning, attention, behavior, emotional regulation, social development, or daily functioning at home or school.

An evaluation may be worth considering if your child is experiencing ongoing challenges that aren’t fully explained or addressed by current strategies. Families often seek assessments when there are concerns around learning, dyslexia, attention, behavior, emotional regulation, social development, or daily functioning at home or school.

You may notice we use the terms “evaluation” and “assessment” interchangeably. In practice, both refer to the same comprehensive process of understanding your child’s unique strengths, challenges, and needs.

Question 8

How do I know if neurofeedback is right for me or my child?

Accepted Answer

Neurofeedback may be helpful for children, teens, and adults who struggle with attention, focus, emotional regulation, anxiety, stress, sleep difficulties, sensory sensitivities, or feeling overwhelmed by daily demands. Many families explore neurofeedback when traditional approaches have provided only partial improvement or when they are looking for a non-medication option to support brain functioning.

Neurofeedback works by helping the brain recognize and strengthen healthier patterns of activity, often leading to improvements in self-regulation, attention, resilience, and overall well-being. While neurofeedback is not a cure or a replacement for therapy, it can be a valuable complement to other treatments and supports, such as therapy and assessments. A consultation can help determine whether neurofeedback is a good fit based on your specific goals, concerns, and needs.
