 The Comprehensive Assessment: 

Our work together begins with a thorough discussion of your concerns. Then, I will guide you through a relaxed but highly comprehensive psychological, lifestyle, social, medical and psychiatric exploration during which you will be encouraged to express yourself completely and freely, while I listen carefully and actively to ensure that I understand what you say and what you mean. We will discuss my impressions at length, from a variety of perspectives and approaches. Then together, you and I will create a holistic wellness plan designed to address your concerns and facilitate recovery, while ultimately, maximizing well-being; a plan which incorporates your preferences and beliefs and employs a full range of therapeutic modalities, including collaboration with any other clinicians involved in your care. Over time, as you grow and change and circumstances change, so will our roadmap, but clear specific goals will always be in mind. 


The Wellness Plan : 
May include but not limited to: 

Extensive education regarding factors known to influence feelings of well-being
