Find your next stepSTART WITH YOUR EXPERIENCE
You don’t have to
have every answer.
School, friendships, family changes and growing independence can bring challenges. A first conversation can help you explore the support your child or teen needs.
Parents in the conversation
Ask how caregivers take part, how goals are discussed, and how consent, privacy and communication are handled.
A setting that fits
School-based, mobile, community, home and telehealth options have different practical requirements. Discuss age suitability and current arrangements with the team.
BEFORE BEGINNING
Talk about
the practical details.
Discuss clinician fit, age range, availability, care settings, fees and insurance. Use a brief first inquiry; the practice can guide you through its approved intake process.
