Pricing & Investment

Transparent pricing. No surprise bills.
We believe families deserve clarity, both clinically and financially. Every fee is published in advance so you can make informed decisions with confidence, without insurance approvals, repeated copays, or hidden charges.

Why we chose a private-pay model.

Hensley Playbook™ does not participate with insurance networks. That decision lets us deliver the kind of evaluation, communication, and follow-through that families actually need, without third-party restrictions getting in the way.

We do offer payment via CareCredit, as well as  FSA and HFA.

Longer, focused appointments

Without insurance billing constraints, we can spend the time your child actually needs for a thorough evaluation.

Comprehensive, not piecemeal

One coordinated evaluation instead of a fragmented series of appointments split across providers and months.

Personalized clinical guidance

Recommendations are built around your child and your family, not constrained by what insurance will reimburse.

Faster access to answers

No prior authorizations or referral delays. Most evaluations are completed within 72 hours so you can move forward sooner.

Choose the level of support that fits your family.

Families can begin wherever they are. The Hensley Playbook™ First Steps Call is available to families in Florida and Virginia, and the Hensley Playbook™ Membership is coming soon. In Florida and Virginia, the Starting Lineup Evaluation provides diagnostic clarity, as a full comprehensive evaluation or a focused second opinion, and Game Plan Coaching adds 90 days of guided support to put your plan into action. We care for children at every level of autism, Levels 1, 2, and 3, and we develop a treatment plan for 100% of the children we evaluate.

Meet your Hensley Playbook™ Navigator.

Membership includes a monthly Group Navigator session and bounded, non-urgent Navigator messaging between visits, so you can ask questions and get help building your child’s local support team and working through complex early childhood systems. Led by Simone Olson, your Navigator offers educational coaching, peer support, and a steady hand as you move from questions to a clear plan. The Membership is coming soon.

Navigators are not licensed medical providers and do not give medical advice, diagnoses, or therapy. This is non-clinical, educational support, and it does not create a clinician-client relationship. Clinical decisions stay with Dr. Hensley and your own licensed professionals.

Monthly Group Navigator session

A non-medical group session of 30 to 45 minutes for 5 to 10 families, with teaching and live Q&A on topics like early intervention, therapy types, and what to do after a diagnosis.

Support between visits

Non-urgent messaging with your Navigator for clarification of recommendations, school and therapy navigation, and resource guidance, answered within 2 to 3 business days.

Navigate the systems

Step-by-step guidance through Early Intervention (Part C) and school district IEP and IFSP timelines, so the logistics feel manageable.

Build your child's team

Map out the professionals your child may need, such as speech, OT, and ABA, and learn how to interview providers and manage waitlists.

Next Steps Strategy Session.

The Hensley Playbook™ Next Steps Strategy Session is a short, targeted problem-solving visit focused on one concern at a time, not ongoing care. It is designed for previously diagnosed children, whether the diagnosis came from us or from another practice, when you are unsure what to do next. All levels of autism are welcome, Levels 1, 2, and 3, and we develop a treatment plan for 100% of the children we see. Parents complete a short intake packet before the session, and a prior diagnostic report is highly recommended so we can make the most of your time.
