INDIVIDUAL CONSULTATIONS 1. COMPREHENSIVE SLEEP SOLUTION PACKAGE WITH THE SLEEP LADY [$750] Once your evaluation appointment is set up, I will send you a client information and developmental history form via fax or email. This form, although lengthy, allows me to get a 24 hour snapshot of your child's current situation. This information is vital to our creating an initial plan that is tailored to your child's needs. I ask that you return the completed history to me (via fax or email) 3 days prior to your evaluation so that I may read it before the evaluation. The initial evaluation is approximately 1.5 hours long with (ideally) both parents in my office in Annapolis, MD or by phone. I will review your completed history form prior to our evaluation. The evaluation consists of sleep education; gathering further information regarding your history, and the creation of an initial plan to improve your child's sleep habits. This comprehensive package includes 8 phone follow-ups where I call you to review your sleep log, provide additional support to you, answer your questions and discuss possible changes to the initial plan. Usually these follows up are completed within 2 to 3 weeks of starting our sleep plan. I ask that parents pay for the complete package at the initial evaluation time. I accept Master Card and Visa. If you wish to pay by check, please mail me a check so that it arrives by the evaluation appointment (my address is available on the contact page of my website). I will not deposit your check until after the evaluation has been completed. 2.
