Comprehensive Evaluation with Medication

Service Description

The comprehensive initial evaluation is the first meeting with your mental health provider, and this is where the therapeutic relationship is forged. We will review your history, from childhood to adulthood, including family history. A complete review of systems is done, looking at lifestyle choices, medical disorders, and environmental or social factors that may be contributing to, or exacerbating your current disorder. There is a discussion of current and past medications, reviewing what has worked in the past, and what has not, and exploring the reasoning. Previous records may be requested and reviewed, including any recent lab results. Any past medication trials are reviewed, and treatment options are explored. A personalized treatment plan is made in collaboration with you (the client) to address your specific concerns and health goals. Case consultation (collaboration with past and current providers, including PCP, therapists, counselors, and referrals as needed).
