468. Intensive Outpatient Treatment Models w/ Katelyn Reed, MS

Would you rather read the transcript? Click here.

Katelyn Reed from Thriving Minds, a group practice in Michigan, is here to talk with me about their intensive treatment model for a variety of anxiety-related disorders like selective mutism and school refusal. While not directly assessment-focused, the episode is great for those of us with multiple service lines in our practice and for anyone working with kids who might benefit from an intensive approach. These are a few areas that we dive into:

• Research support for intensive treatment vs. extended treatment
• Screening and preparing clients and families for this model
• Billing for this approach to treatment
• Marketing and referrals for intensive treatment
