Intensive Therapy Programs

STEP 1

Complete an Interest Form

If you’re new to NAPA, your first step is submitting an interest form directly from our website. This gives our team the basic information we need to get to know your family and begin the process of connecting you with the right care. Once we receive your form, you’ll get an email with a personalized link to complete your intake.
Have questions before you’re ready to dive in? You’ll also have the option to schedule a discovery session with our Client Experience team. It’s a chance to ask questions, learn more about what to expect, and make sure NAPA is the right fit for your family before moving forward.

STEP 2

Complete Your Intake

The intake process is an important step because it helps our therapists understand your child’s history, goals, and needs so we can build the right plan for them. Take your time filling it out thoroughly — the more we know, the better we can serve your family.

After you submit, our team will review your intake and be in touch within two weeks. What happens next depends on the type of program you’re interested in:

• Intensives: Our therapists will review your intake and determine whether your child is a candidate for our intensive program. Your intensive coordinator will reach out once recommendations are ready, and you’ll be able to review them directly within the Ocean Friends app.
• Weekly sessions: A coordinator will reach out to either schedule your first session if availability allows, or place you on the waitlist if not. Waitlists do move, so don’t be discouraged.
• Both: If you’re interested in both intensives and weekly sessions, our team will guide you through each path.
