U.S. Service Member Disability Benefit Evaluations
Disability Benefit Evaluations for Service Members
At Self-Care Simplified, we provide disability benefit evaluations to both active duty and veteran service members. We understand that this is an important process, and we’re here to help you every step of the way. Below are the different options available for scheduling your evaluation and additional feedback offerings.
Option 1: 30-Minute Evaluation + DBQ Write-Up
One 30-minute virtual appointment with a licensed psychologist.
Completion of the Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) following the evaluation.
Cost: $400 due at the time of service.
Option 2: 60-Minute Evaluation + DBQ Write-Up
One 60-minute virtual appointment with a licensed psychologist.
Completion of the Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) following the evaluation.
Cost: $600 due at the time of service.
Feedback Offerings: Express or Full Feedback Session
We recognize that some service members may need more personalized attention or want to go over their DBQ in greater detail. After your evaluation and DBQ write-up, we offer two types of feedback sessions to suit your needs:
Express Feedback Session (20 minutes): A brief follow-up session to review key points from the DBQ and answer any questions. Cost: $120
Full Feedback Session (50 minutes): A more thorough explanation of the DBQ and its implications, with additional time for questions, clarifications, and next steps. Cost: $300
How to Schedule Your Evaluation
To begin, you can contact us via email, phone, or schedule a consultation directly through our website. One of our staff members will conduct a brief consultation to explain what to expect from the process. During this call, we will:
Confirm your state of residence to ensure that we are licensed to provide services in your state (you can verify this by visiting our home page and checking the “states we are licensed to practice psychology in” section).
Schedule your evaluation and answer any initial questions you may have.
Send you electronic client paperwork, including consent forms and the service member questionnaire, which helps inform the evaluation.
After the consultation, you’ll receive a link to your appointment. Please click the link ahead of time to test its functionality from your device.
