First session
In the first session, clients can expect a comfortable, judgment-free conversation where I take the time to get to know them and their mental health concerns. We'll discuss current symptoms, medical and mental health history, past treatments, and any goals for care. I’ll ask questions to better understand how their condition affects their daily life and what they hope to achieve with treatment. I also explain how I approach medication management, including potential options, benefits, and side effects, and answer any questions they may have. If medication is appropriate, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan, and I’ll outline the next steps, including follow-up visits to monitor progress. My goal is to ensure clients feel heard, informed, and comfortable with their care . Please note that prescriptions will be sent only after payment is confirmed and processed, typically within 1–2 business days for (self-pay clients. )
