For the convenience of students and parents, when available, we offer therapy services to students at several local schools, including Bayside Elementary School, Kent Island Elementary School, and Stevensville Middle School. We may add school-based therapy services at other QACPS schools, so feel free to call us to ask if we can see your child at a school not listed here.
Parents seeking school-based therapy services for a child should contact us to schedule an initial appointment by telehealth or at the office with one of our school-based therapists. At the initial appointment, the therapist can answer questions about school-based therapy, and the child, therapist, and parent(s) can discuss whether school-based therapy is the best treatment plan. To schedule the initial appointment:
- If your child attends Bayside Elementary School or Kent Island Elementary School, you may use this KIES/BES Link to open a new window where you can schedule with Coleen Lynn, LCSW-C (you can learn more about Coleen here).
- If your child attends any other school, call us and let us know about your interest in school-based therapy.
Insurance coverage for school-based therapy is no different from insurance coverage for therapy at the office. Except when children have state medical assistance (Medicaid), we do require parents of children receiving school-based therapy to provide authorization for CBPS to charge a credit card on file for parental financial responsibilities such as copayments and deductibles—since insurers require us to collect copayments at the time of service.
If you have questions about school-based therapy before scheduling, feel free to Contact Us.
