What to Expect

  • For your first appointment we will focus on establishing a shared understanding of your concerns and identify your treatment goals. I will give you 1-2 questionnaires at the beginning of your first appointment to complete.

  • If you have been referred by a Dr, I will complete a brief letter to the referring Dr to confirm the start of treatment.

  • If you have been referred with a Mental Health Care Plan, I am required to send your referring Dr a summary letter of your treatment and outcomes after session 6 and session 10. I will also request repeat questionnaires which will assist in the review of treatment and feedback for your Dr.
