FAQs

How does therapy work?

The length and duration of therapy will vary depending on you and your child's needs! 

Therapy sessions are typically held 1-2 times per week, and can last 30-60 minutes depending on your needs. Clear, consistent communication is most important when it comes to therapy progress! This session timespan allows for a therapist to effectively communicate all the important aspects of a session to parents and caregivers. If you let me know what you need from a session, I'll do my best to make sure your needs are met and you are satisfied!

I'm ready to start therapy. What do I do now?

If you are interested in services you can call me or email to get started! Before starting therapy sessions, you will need to first schedule an evaluation. This typically is a 1-1.5 hour appointment where we take the time to get to know your child, discuss any concerns you have, administer assessments, and identify any goals that you want to set as part of therapy. Evaluations can be considered the process where we "lay down the tracks" for your child's interventions so we can move full steam ahead to where they need to go next in their development! If the evaluation results indicate intervention is necessary, you will be able to schedule your therapy appointments.

Insurance

Once an evaluation is complete, I can schedule regualr therapy sessions. and discuss the cost of services. Communication Station is currently working to achieve in-network status with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana.

If you have a different insurance provider, you may be able to apply private payments to your out-of-network deductible using a document known as a "superbill." Both private and insurance payments can be paid using your Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account. If you are unable to apply your healthcare coverage to therapy, private pay options are also available. Please contact me to inquire about private pay rates for evaluations and sessions.
