Initial Consultation
Setting the Foundation: Intake and psychiatric evaluation.
Service Description
What to Expect in a 60-Minute Initial Consultation The initial consultation is a comprehensive, one-hour session where we’ll take time to understand your mental health history, current concerns, and treatment goals. We'll explore your symptoms, medical background, lifestyle factors (such as sleep, nutrition, and stress), and any past experiences with medication or therapy. I’ll also ask about what’s most important to you—your values, strengths, and what healing means in your life. This session is grounded in therapeutic listening, trauma-informed care, and mutual respect. Together, we’ll begin to craft a treatment plan that may include medication, integrative supports, and therapeutic tools tailored to your unique needs. By the end of the session, you’ll have a clearer understanding of next steps and what our work together will look like.
