Terri Elbaum is both a college counselor and an academic coach. She offers clients counseling and/or therapy services depending on
your unique needs. |
OUR PROCESS
Language therapy services are offered on a weekly basis and can be combined with college counseling services. As a speech-language pathologist, I provide cognitive-linguistic therapy for middle school and high school students, improving grades as we work on strategies and college readiness skills.
Language therapy is covered under some insurance plans
The College Focus does not accept insurance payment, but if your insurance does cover and reimburse for these services, The College Focus will provide you with a diagnosis code on your billing statement for you to then forward to your insurance company.
Fee options
The College Focus offers you a choice of two fee options—an hourly rate or a comprehensive plan that gives you a reduced rate. Please contact for more information: Terri@thecollegefocus.com
