EVALUATIONS · LAGUNA NIGUEL, CA
One hour.
Real answers.
A clear plan.
You've been wondering. An evaluation doesn't commit you to anything — it gives you information. One hour with a licensed therapist, a written report, and a roadmap for what comes next.
What happens at an eval here?
1
Your Child Plays
That's it from the outside. We're watching everything - communication, regulation, movement, connection.
2
We Talk With You
What you're seeing at home, what's hard, what you're hoping to understand. Your observations matter.
3
You Get a Written Report
Findings, goals, and a clear roadmap. Within two weeks of your visit.
4
We Give You an Honest Answer
Including "your child doesn't need therapy right now" - if that's the truth. We'll always tell you.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
Everything you need to
stop wondering.
No mystery. No upsell. One evaluation gives you everything on this list - regardless of which direction you go next.
Not a 10-minute screening. A real, thorough evaluation with a licensed therapist who is paying very close attention to your child — not rushing to the next family.
A comprehensive written report delivered within two weeks. Findings, clinical impressions, goals, and a clear recommendation — so you have something real to take to your pediatrician, school, or wherever you go next.
Time with your therapist to walk through what they observed, answer your questions, and explain the plan. You leave knowing exactly what's going on — not guessing.
We provide a detailed superbill every month so you can submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement. We help you understand the process — you submit it directly.
We will tell you if your child doesn't need therapy. This is not a clinic that manufactures need. If the answer is "keep doing what you're doing," we will say that — in writing.
We don't put families on a 6-month waitlist. A $200 deposit holds your spot. We'll reach out within 1–2 business days to schedule. Most families are seen within 1-2 weeks.
