Your First Appointment

You will need to fill out the intake paperwork via my patient portal prior to your first appointment.

The first appointment is called a "Psychosocial Assessment". This is to gather information on how best to help you. This is not the same as treatment, which will start on your second session. It is similar to when a doctor orders tests, they are "assessing", when they prescribe medication or other therapy, they are "treating".

If you are billing insurance, you will need to provide a copy of your insurance card(s). If you have more than one insurance, I will need copies of all of the cards. Please know which insurance is primary.

Attendance
Regular attendance will produce the maximum benefits in the shortest amount of time.  Appointments start on the hour and last 45-50 minutes.  After 15 minutes you will be considered a no-show.  Please call if you cannot attend as scheduled. 

Cancellation Policy

Please notify me at least 24 hours in advance if you are unable to keep your appointment. Two cancellations with less than 24 notice count as one no-show.

Three no-shows may result in your being discharged.
