If necessary, we can switch your provider. However, we recommend building a relationship with one provider, as continuity of care often leads to the best treatment outcomes. That said, your comfort and trust in your provider are important, so if a change is needed, we are happy to assist in finding the right fit for you.

During your first visit, your provider will take the time to understand your concerns, symptoms, medical history, and goals for treatment. This may include discussing past treatments, medications, and any life stressors affecting your mental health. Our goal is to create a personalized treatment plan that works best for you. You are welcome to ask any questions or express any concerns at any time.

Some patients benefit from therapy alone, while others find a combination of therapy and medication to be most effective. Your provider will discuss all options with you and tailor the treatment plan based on your comfort level and needs.

Follow-up appointments depend on your treatment plan. Initially, they may be scheduled more frequently to monitor progress and adjust medication if needed. Over time, they may be spaced out. Some patients prefer shorter check-ins, while others benefit from longer sessions for in-depth discussions. Your provider will work with you to determine the best schedule.
