Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, the client can expect an evalutation that will be about 45-60 minutes long. Paperwork and assessments will need to be completed to help determine a diagnosis. We will discuss your medical and psychiatric history-both personal and family related. I will need a complete list of medications (including psychiatric medications & details about any psychiatric hospitalizations. I will inquire about the reason you're seeking treatment. It is normal to experience different emotions during this session. I want my patients to understand that I am here to help and support them.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I pride myself on being a good listener that utilizes a holistic approach. I understand why some patients do not want medication, but I offer you a comprehensive explanation of the purpose, side effects and benefits. I help you to make an informed choice.

She was very nice to talk to and definitely looks to help with my needs. She also asks many questions to get as accurate of a picture about me as possible.
