Office manager schedules an hour consultation with the founder of Communiverse® (Susan Paul) for every incoming client. Because we do not take insurance, during that hourlong consult, we arm our families with as many strategies as possible that they can use immediately in a naturalistic context. Following the consult, if the family chooses to continue services with us, we schedule therapy. We defer an evaluation if a child has already had a recent evaluation at school/preschool as long as we are provided with a copy of the evaluation. Parents and caregivers are encouraged to sit in our sessions to foster carryover, as appropriate. We collaborate with other SLPs on the school team, etc.
