Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions do you help manage?

We are experts in pediatric mental health conditions. ADHD, anxiety, depression, OCD, and autism. Our team has extensive experience with simple & complex mental health medication management. Our two main principles 1) use as few medications as possible to get maximal benefit and 2) frequently reassess to ensure continued improvement.

When changes are made, we proactively check-in often via email or text to make sure things are trending in the right direction.

What if my child just needs to be evaluated at this time?

We can help there, too! We offer same week one-time mental health consultations for conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, etc. You can book those from our main booking link above or call/text us to arrange (402) 817-2116

Do I have to call or come in for refills every month?

Absolutely not! We know parents are busy and requiring visits or phone calls every month for refills leads to frustration and missed doses. We keep tabs on the dates for refill requests so you don't have to and proactively send prescriptions so you can count on them being ready when needed. If you are in need of a refill sooner, you simply text us and let us know where to send it.

We live outside of Lincoln, can we participate in this model?

Certainly! We designed this to provide help for Nebraska families near and far! For those that live in Nebraska but not nearby, we offer telemedicine visits & text/email communications as often as necessary. We can coordinate for vital signs (weight, height and blood pressure) monitoring to be done by child's school nurse.

Do we still see our child's regular doctor?

Yes! For all questions & conditions not related to your child's mental health management you will continue to see your child's regular doctor.

Does it take awhile to get an appointment when we need to talk through things?

Nope. We make it easy for same week appointments by keeping our patient panel small enough to get patients seen when issues come up. Often we can discuss things virtually over telemedicine, email, or text and help even faster when questions arise.

How much does a mental health membership cost? Can I pay with my HSA?

Our mental health membership is $75/month and you can pay with your HSA.

We set our price to. save parents money. We know that mental health conditions can often add financial strain for families between medical visits, therapy, and the cost of medications. At a typical practice most mental health visits go towards your insurance deductible and cost, on average, about $220/visit every 2-3 months along with the added cost & hassle of missing work, school, activities, homework time, and family time. We priced our model to meet or better the cost of a traditional practice and provide the ease, flexibility and accessibility to restore margin & peace to your busy family.

Is therapy included?

Therapy is not included because of the varied needs of patients in the frequency and type of therapy for individual conditions. We can, however, assist in finding a therapist to help and use our network of resources to ensure you get access and help quickly when your child needs therapy.

I'm interested. What are the next steps?

If you'd like to discuss further and decide if your child is a good fit, you can book a free meet & greet to talk through things with Dr Boucher or NP Clara.

If you're ready to join, our registration process takes about 5 minutes and once you join you can book an initial appointment as early as this week.
