Fees and Payment Information
We understand that seeking support for your child’s educational or mental health needs is a significant decision. Whether you are looking for a comprehensive evaluation, specialized therapy, or professional consultation, we are committed to providing expert care with total transparency. Our fees are competitive—and often lower—than similar providers in Northern Virginia, but our true value lies in our integrity as advocates. We take pride in guiding families toward the specific level of support and therapeutic approach that best meets their child's unique needs. If you are unsure which service is right for your family, we are happy to walk you through the options during a free phone consultation with a licensed psychologist.

Insurance & Reimbursement
We are an out-of-network provider, a model that allows us to offer more time, attention, and highly personalized care to each client. By operating independently of insurance restrictions, we maintain the flexibility to tailor our services to your child’s specific needs, not just what a policy covers. This ensures we can dedicate the significant time required for thorough testing, in-depth analysis, and high-quality, readable report writing.
​
This model also allows us to maintain greater confidentiality for your family, as insurance reimbursement typically requires sharing detailed clinical information with third parties.
​
Navigating Your Benefits
​
While we do not bill insurance directly, we aim to make the reimbursement process as simple as possible:
-
Superbills: We provide a detailed receipt (superbill) that you can submit to your insurance provider for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
-
Insurance Guide: We can provide a document with specific questions and codes to help guide your conversation with your insurance carrier.
-
IEE Eligibility: For students in public schools who have been tested previously, you may qualify for an Independent Educational Evaluation (IEE), which is funded by the school district.​

-
Zelle (preferred for assessment)

Payment Timing

For all other services, payment is due at the time of service.
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your care will cost. Under the No Surprises Act, health care providers are required to give patients who don't have insurance or aren't using an insurance an estimate of the expected charges for services.
​
You will receive a written estimate before services begin.
If you receive a bill that is $400 or more above the estimate, you have the right to dispute the charges.
