Parent Strategy and Behavioral Health Packages
These services are available to Non-Members because they are already included as part of the Direct Pediatric memberships.
Introducing A Unique Model:
Pediatric + Child Psychology expertise in one visit with
Dr. Steve Johnson, Pediatrician and Child Psychologist
Most parents don’t know:
- Is this normal?
- Do we need therapy?
- Do we need testing?
- Are we overreacting… or missing something?
These packages are designed to give clarity, direction, and a plan, quickly.
OPTION 1: Parent Strategy Session
$250 | 60 Minutes
A focused, high-yield session designed to help parents navigate common behavioral and emotional concerns.
Best for:
- School struggles (motivation, focus, organization)
- Anxiety or stress
- Social challenges or bullying
- Body image concerns
- Behavioral challenges at home
- Parenting strategy questions
What you get:
1. A deep dive into your specific concern
2. Clear understanding of what’s developmentally typical vs. concerning
3. Practical, immediately actionable strategies
4. Guidance on:
- When to monitor vs. act
- When therapy is helpful
- When medical or specialist input is needed
Think of this as:
“What should we do next—and how do we do it well?”
OPTION 2: Focused Diagnostic Evaluation
$750 | 2 x 60 Minute Sessions
A structured evaluation for parents seeking clarity around a possible diagnosis.
Best for concerns such as:
- ADHD
- Anxiety disorders
- Depression
- Learning or school-related concerns
- Behavioral patterns that feel “bigger than typical”
What’s included:
Session 1 (60 min):
1. Comprehensive history (developmental, academic, behavioral)
2. Identification of key diagnostic questions
3. Selection of targeted rating scales
Between sessions:
Standardized rating scales completed by parents (and teachers when appropriate)
Scoring and interpretation
Session 2 (60 min):
1. Review of results and patterns
2. Clear diagnostic impressions (when appropriate)
3. Specific, individualized next steps, including:
- Pediatric management vs. therapy
- School supports
- When full testing is warranted
- Medication considerations (if relevant)
Think of this as:
“Do we have a diagnosis—and what exactly should we do about it?”
How This Is Different From Comprehensive Psychological Testing
This is intentionally not a full psychoeducational evaluation.
Your in-house psychologist’s comprehensive evaluation includes:
1. IQ testing
2. Academic achievement testing
3. Full cognitive and learning profile
4. Formal written report for schools/IEPs
These packages are designed to:
- Provide faster access
- Answer focused clinical questions
- Help families decide:
- Do we need full testing—or not?
Many families don’t need full testing.
Some clearly do.
This helps determine that efficiently.
