What is your typical process for working with clients?

We start with a comprehensive first visit, where you and your provider will discuss your goals, medical history, and what brings you to treatment. From there, you’ll work with your provider to create a care plan that feels right for you, which may include medication, therapy, or both. If your provider recommends medication, they’ll walk you through your options—our goal is always to help you make informed choices about your care. You’ll meet with your provider regularly for follow-up visits to check in, adjust your care as needed, and make sure you feel supported in your journey.

Was needing to find a psychiatrist in a short time frame and I was able to find one who met my needs, took my insurance and was able to schedule me for an appointment to be seen less than a week later. The appointment went very well and she listened to my needs and concerns while doing touching on all aspects of my mental health to insure I had the best care and medication management. I am very please with my experience and now am an established patient with a regular psychiatrist.
