Getting Started with Amy

If you have access to this page, this means we have spoken and agreed to move forward with working together. You can access all of your paperwork below, as well as schedule your appointment. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me at amy@playtimetherapy.org and I am happy to help.

Paperwork

Every client needs to fill out the following:

3) Medication Agreement Form

4) HIPAA Acknowledgement Form

This paperwork must be submitted prior to your appointment with me so I can review it and have it on file.

Cancellation Policy

All appointments must be cancelled or rescheduled a minimum of 48 hours prior to your appointment. If you do not cancel or reschedule your appointment at least 48 hours before your scheduled appointment time, you will be charged a fee as outlined in the Informed Consent forms above. I set aside a portion of time just for you for your appointment. Failing to honor this impedes my ability to function optimally and help other families like yours. Please be mindful of the commitment of my time that I am making for you and return the consideration by doing the same. Thank you so much for understanding!

Appointment Scheduling

I allow self-scheduling to make it easier for families to schedule appointments without waiting on me to confirm my availability. Below is a link to my calendar. To schedule an appointment, click on the date you’d like and it will display all of my available appointments for that day. It allows you to book a minimum of 48 hours ahead of time and as far in advance as you’d like.  All appointments are virtual. Your appointment confirmation will be emailed to you automatically and will include a link to our meeting. All virtual meetings take place within my HIPAA-compliant version of Google Meet.

Please note: for medication management for children/adolescents, your child must be present for a portion of the appointment.  This includes intakes and follow up appointments.

For all available appointments click my calendar link here: https://playtimetherapy.org/schedule-an-appointment-with-amy/

Once you reserve your appointment, the system will send you a reminder email 72 hours and 2 hours prior to your appointment.

I look forward to working with you!
