Comprehensive Initial Consultation
An effective individualized treatment plan must begin with an accurate diagnosis. The comprehensive initial consultation does just that. Prior to meeting with the patient, previous treatment, medical, psychiatric, bloodwork, genetic testing, psycho-educational, and neuropsychological records are reviewed. Existing therapists will also be contacted to understand the patient's background.
During a 90-minute evaluation, we will explore all aspects of patient health and well-being, including a discussion of personal goals. The evaluation begins with an extensive online intake questionnaire to assess psychiatric and medical history, medications, childhood experiences, relationships, environment, diet, and other lifestyle factors.
After the meeting, a comprehensive individualized treatment plan will be created, which can include treatment recommendations in several areas including additional laboratory or diagnostic testing, psychotherapy, vitamins/supplements, diet/nutrition, exercise plans, and other holistic treatments. Traditional medication may also be used. The goal is to look at multiple options and then narrow in on the approach that has the highest probability of success in the shortest amount of time
