Therapist Resources

Welcome! These are my top recommended resources for therapists

• Books I highly recommend for an up-to-date understanding of Autism (not just for those doing assessments!)
  Is this Autism? A Guide for Clinicians and Everyone Else by Henderson, Wayland, & White

  Is this Autism? A Companion Guide for Diagnosing by Henderson, Wayland, & White

  The Adult Autism Assessment Handbook by Hartman, O’Donnell-Killen, Kavanaugh, Day, & Azevedo

• The Neuroaffirming Therapy Handbook: A Practitioner’s Guide to Working with Autism and ADHD by Essy Knopf

• A fantastic book on relationships (including monogamous ones) that addresses trauma and attachment, inclusive of poly/CNM relationships is Polysecure: Attachment, Trauma and Consensual Nonmonogamy by Jessica Fern

• Bobbi-Jo Molokken offers great ADHD trainings and consultation (group and individual options)

• Jessica Hogan’s practice offers neuro-affirming assessment consultation at The Divergent Clinician

• Educational/support Facebook groups for clinicians:
  For all clinicians to learn about neurodivergence: Therapists Supporting Neurodiversity
  For ADHD clinicians: Clinicians, Counselors, and Social Workers with ADHD
  For Autistic clinicians: Autistic Counsellors and Psychotherapists

• Mentaya vs. Thrizer Flow Chart - done-for-you OON claim submission options I use, sorted by deductible status, client vs. therapist submission, method of reimbursement, and client fees.
  
  I like that they both fight claim denials, and I’ve had good experiences with customer support for both. As of this posting, neither charges therapist fees for the services on this chart, just credit card processing fees like you’d have elsewhere (updated 7/18/24).
  
  I don’t make any guarantees this is 100% correct, but it’s my best understanding after looking things over quite a bit. Please feel free to contact me if you see errors or if the image is not accessible!

  Here’s another comparison (note, it’s from Thrizer, so there’s a possibiltity of bias). https://www.thrizer.com/post/out-of-network-therapy-billing-thrizer-reimbursify-mentaya-or-advekit?_kx=lqxm2kqn6exUJE8fjk3rT3oP4bC8OeVhP4g7TRfeJVDPN3cB3NBomQEwYSF3gq3H.VZ3S7S
