In initial appointments, clients should expect a very thorough evaluation focused on establishing and ruling out diagnoses. We will discuss your med and psych history and we will talk about your current goals and expectations. When a client has a complex psychiatric presentation, I will schedule another 60 minute follow up for a few days later so we can finish our eval and make a plan. We’ll work together to create a plan that feels supportive and realistic, with a focus on what will truly help you feel better!
One important thing to know before scheduling: if you currently take a controlled medication, or think you may need one as part of your treatment, you will need to see me in person in Kingston Springs, TN shortly after your first appointment. Please make sure you are comfortable traveling to Kingston Springs for an in-person visit if needed. If you live outside the Middle Tennessee Area and take a controlled medication, my practice may not be the best fit for you because pharmacies may not fill controlled medication prescriptions from me based on your distance from me.
