How to Get Started
The process to starting school-based therapy is simple! To begin, fill out our form for Richmond Public Schools students or Hopewell City Public Schools students. Once it is submitted, our case coordinator will be in contact to finish the process. Then, we’ll call to schedule the child’s first appointment where we’ll create a custom treatment plan together based on their needs.
