Intake Session
Intake SessionThe First Intake session process.
The first session will be an intake session with the parent(s) and/or caregiver(s). Intake sessions are completed remotely via telehealth or virtual meeting.

During the intake, the therapist will gather information to learn more about your child, your family, why you are seeking therapy. They learn how they can best support and help your child and family. Please don’t hesitate to ask questions during the intake session.

After the intake, treatment can begin, we will schedule weekly sessions for a regular time and day.

Parents and caregivers are encouraged to communicate with the therapist by asking questions and sharing updates and/or concerns either by email, phone, or participating in part of the session.

The therapist will provide updates on what they are working in session so parents can use the skills outside of the therapy sessions.

The therapist will provide links to articles and make reading and/or podcast suggestions depending on the child and family needs.
