How can occupational therapy help teenage girls?
Occupational therapy can help teenage girls by providing tools and strategies to manage physical, mental, and emotional difficulties, build self-esteem, and develop skills that will help them navigate puberty and adulthood. It can also provide important support as they transition into adulthood.
​
What type of interventions do you offer?
Neurogirl Therapy provides occupation-based interventions which focus on important activities like hygiene, grooming, menstrual hygiene management, and more. Therapy sessions also include cognitive-behavioral approaches to build self-awareness and self-confidence. We educate clients and caregivers on puberty, post-education planning, and community resources.
​
How can caretakers support the client's involvement in occupational therapy?
Caretakers can support the client's involvement in occupational therapy by reinforcing positive behavior and remaining open to recommendations. They can also help the client practice the skills learned in therapy and apply them in everyday life. Furthermore, caretakers should ensure the client is actively involved in decision-making. Lastly, parents should communicate regularly with the occupational therapist to ensure the therapy is meeting the client's needs.

Does Neurogirl Therapy accept insurance?
No, we do not accept any insurance. As a courtesy to families who have health care plans with out-of-network benefits, we will provide official paid-in-full invoices (a “superbill”) upon request. Families can submit the superbill to their insurance plan for any reimbursement for services allowable under their plan. The effectiveness of our treatment model relies on the therapeutic value of longer sessions, innovative interventions, and a group therapy model which is usually not reimbursed by health insurance. In order to provide this high-caliber of care for our families, we do not bill insurance for our services and are not in-network with any health insurance. This allows us the freedom to practice in optimal ways to serve the family, rather than being tied to what insurance plans would allow us to do.
​
How do you take payment?
We gladly accept cash or credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or American Express) virtually or in the office. Statements are generated and mailed the first week of each month.
​
What is your refund policy?
Our services are nonrefundable. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your services, please contact us directly. We are always available to discuss any issues you may have and will strive to resolve them in a timely manner.
