I meet with you and we:

• take a detailed inventory of symptoms, your mental health/family/social histories

• identify your target symptoms

• determine your goals

• customize your treatment plan — involving behavioral approaches and cautious use of medication when warranted

• collaborate with your care partner if need be to tailor behavioral interventions to reduce stress.

It is recommended in some cases to have a trusted care partner to be present for appointments. Why? To ask important questions, seek guidance, take notes, and more importantly— to increase your chances of treatment success.
