WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT?
1: SCHEDULE:
Call or Click “First-Time Clients” above to schedule your first appointment. During your initial phone call our intake staff will briefly discuss services and get an idea of how we can best assist you. If you determine we are a good fit We will schedule our first session. A credit card is required to hold your intake session. This will ensure your time. After scheduling, you will receive an email to access our client portal. The portal includes our documentation, consent forms, and beginning assessments. We ask that you complete the documentation 2-3 days prior to your first session. (10-15min)

3: FIRST THERAPUETIC SESSION:
