Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about therapy services in NJ, NY & CT insurance, telehealth, and who we help.

  • Parenting Support for ADHD & Behavior is parent-focused coaching. Your child may join briefly when helpful, but sessions center on caregiver skills you can use at home.

  • No. Many families begin Parenting Support for ADHD & Behavior before a formal evaluation. We’ll work from what’s happening day-to-day and build practical tools right away.

  • We’re self-pay and not in-network. If you have out-of-network (OON) benefits, you may receive partial reimbursement—we’ll provide a superbill for you to submit. Payment is due at time of service; HSA/FSA cards are typically accepted. Coverage varies by plan, so reimbursement isn’t guaranteed.

  • Helpful, not required. We’ll tailor Parenting Support for ADHD & Behavior to your family structure—one caregiver, both parents, or other key supports.

  • Telehealth: NJ · NY · CT. In-person: Rutherford, NJ.

    Parenting support is available online statewide and in person locally.
