If you'd like to make an appointment or learn more about the evaluation process, services offered, or have questions about payment and insurance, please send an email to drtara@tarabenninger.com
Please include the following information in your inquiry:
first and last name
date of birth
preferred phone and e-mail contact information
name of your insurance company
reason for your inquiry
You can also call and leave a voicemail at 614-233-1761 and someone will get back to you as soon as possible. However, as we are often with clients during the day, e-mail is the most efficient way to get in touch with us.
Once we receive this information and determine the type of evaluation needed, someone will reach out to schedule based on the next available appointment dates/times by phone or email.
Once the appointment is confirmed, the client will be registered with a Therapy Appointment account, the HIPAA compliant platform used by Benninger & Associates. The registration email from Therapy Appointment will come from "noreply@therapyappointment.com" and may go into a spam folder. This email link to register will remain valid for 48 hours. If the link has expired, please email drtara@tarabenninger.com to request a new link. This platform is where new clients will fill out basic demographic information, upload insurance and payment information, sign consent forms and complete a brief intake questionnaire. If your appointment is a virtual visit, it will be conducted through this platform. Virtual visit links open approximately 15 minutes prior to the start time.
In addition to registering with therapy appointment, you will receive a confirmation e-mail with the date(s) and time(s) of your appointments, the location of the office, as well as links to several electronic rating scales that will need to be completed prior to the evaluation appointments. As we often schedule a few months out for an appointment, once all rating scales are completed and returned, we are able to place you on a cancellation list for any earlier openings.
You can also check the Frequently Asked Questions page to address some of the most common inquiries.
If you are an existing client and need to reschedule or cancel an appointment, please email Dr. Tara Benninger at drtara@tarabenninger.com. You can also access your account information via the patient portal.
