- Admin taken care of: Our team handles intake, scheduling, billing and invoicing for you.

- Paid planning time: Every 60-minute session includes 20 paid minutes for planning and notes.

- Travel reimbursed: Travel for outreach visits is reimbursed as per client service agreements.

- A team behind you: Contractor independence, with the clinical collaboration and support of an established multidisciplinary practice.
