Frequently Asked Questions
What forms of payment do you accept?
AFS is a self pay business so I do not accept any insurance providers. Being self pay is the best way for me to provide services without limitations placed on me dictating what we do and how long I can work with your family. However, I can provide you with a superbill at the end of our sessions for you to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement.
How long are your sessions?
Sessions and evaluations are scheduled for 1 hour. If needed we can book longer appointments, this can be decided on an as needed basis.
How frequently will I have appointments?
This is totally up to you and your family! After the evaluation I will offer my recommendations based on need and we can set a just right frequency that you are comfortable with. I offer anywhere from 1-5x a week!
Do you have family friendly hours?
My hours are completely flexible for your family. I want to be present for anything that you are struggling with including morning routines, bedtime, grocery shopping, school pick up, and meal times! If it is a problem area then we will determine a time that works best for me to be there in the moment with you!
Do I need a script from my doctor?
No, Arizona is a direct access state meaning you do not need a script to receive occupational therapy services.
Do you have a travel fee?
If you are located more than 45 minutes away from my home there will be an additional travel fee added to your session. This fee is based on mileage and will be discussed with you prior to your initial evaluation. You will never be surprised by added fees after a session!
Do you work with specific diagnoses?
I have experience with a wide variety of diagnoses. This includes but is not limited to: ADHD, ASD, CP, Developmental Delay, Intellectual Disabilities, Spina Bifida, Angelman Syndrome, speech delays and kiddos who are non-verbal, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Conduct Disorder. My services are not specific to a diagnosis!
Where are you located?
AFS is a community based therapy provider so my services all take place at your home or in the community.
