What should a new client know about working with you?
Our goal is to have a detailed initial evaluation and accurate diagnosis resulting in a more accurate description of the condition you are dealing with. After that has been completed the condition will be more easily targeted and effectively treated. Far too often individuals are given a limited evaluation not leading to any further improvement or diagnosis clarification. Once we can identify the most accurate conditions we can then offer specific treatments for each individual therefore hopefully leading to further improvement and stability. We would also include some therapy in addition to medication management. I look forward to working with you and establishing the proper treatment so that you can have the care you should have always had.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
The typical process would involve a comprehensive first evaluation with therapy intervention in addition to medication management. After that we would together decide what treatments we would attempt and have follow-up appointments to evaluate side effects or benefits. Additional information during these evaluations will occur and further diagnostic clarification can be obtained through the electronic record that contains multiple different types of questionnaires that can be used. We would also have the ability to do laboratory examinations if necessary and give you access to your records in a secure platform that protects your health information. Please schedule today and get better sooner.
