What is your typical process for working with clients?

Certainly! Here's a revised version of your text that aims for clarity, conciseness, and professionalism: The initial session is a comprehensive consultation where I collaboratively diagnose the patient after thoroughly understanding their medical history and concerns. Once a diagnosis is made, we jointly develop a tailored care plan. This plan outlines the prescribed medication regimen, schedules for adjunctive therapies, and specialist referrals when necessary. Subsequent meetings focus on monitoring progress and reassessing the treatment plan. During these follow-ups, we evaluate the effectiveness of the current medication and make any needed adjustments. I also guide patients on best practices for advancing their mental health journey.
