FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Here are some answers to the questions I receive the most. If you can’t find what you are looking for, please get in touch.

DO YOU TAKE INSURANCE?
I am an out-of-network practice, but I can provide invoices that you may submit to your insurance for reimbursement. You may take the following CPT codes to your insurance to check for reimbursement before scheduling:
96116 - First hour of neuropsych intake
96136 - First 30 mins of neuropsych testing
96137 - Each additional 30 minutes of neuropsych testing
96132 - First hour of data integration & data interpretation
96133 - Additional hour(s) for data interpretation, feedback, & report writing
DO YOU PROVIDE TARGETED or ABBREVIATED EVALUATIONS?
Yes! When a full neuropsychological evaluation is not indicated, I provide targeted diagnostic evaluations or updated evaluations to inform your child's response to intervention. I have specialized training in the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition (ADOS-2) and Autism Diagnostic Interview, Revised (ADI-R). I provide targeted autism diagnostic evaluations to inform your child's cognitive, developmental, and social-emotional goals and needs.
DO YOU EVALUATE ADULTS?
Absolutely. The most common reason adults seek out my support is to help answer whether they struggle with symptoms of ADHD or autism spectrum disorder. I provide both comprehensive and targeted diagnostic evaluations depending on your specific goals.
ARE IN-PERSON TESTING OPTIONS AVAILABLE?
Yes! Testing in-person is preferred. The appropriateness of virtual and hybrid evaluations will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
WHEN IS A NEUROPSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION RECOMMENDED?
Below are a few common reasons a neuropsychological evaluation may be recommended:
-
When there are questions about a diagnosis (e.g., is it anxiety, attention, or a combination of both?)
-
When your child is not performing to their potential and you have questions about how to better support their learning and school performance
-
When you have questions about your child's school placement
-
When your child can camouflage or work hard to hold themselves together during the school day but is very stressed and easy to upset at home
-
When your child is avoiding work and requires a lot of support from you or teachers to start or persist through schoolwork
-
When your child expresses their thoughts well orally but has a much harder time translating those thoughts into writing
-
When your child has difficulty keeping friendships but you are unsure what's contributing to their challenges
