The first step is a free phone consultation. Fifteen minutes, no commitment. Whether you are calling about your child or about yourself, here is what we can settle on that call, before anything is scheduled:
Whether an evaluation is the right next step. You describe what you’ve been noticing and what you want to understand; I tell you honestly whether a comprehensive evaluation will answer it, or whether something else would serve you better.
Whether we’re a good fit. You get a sense of how I work and whether that feels right. A comfortable, trusting connection matters for a child in the testing room and for an adult walking through their own history.
Anything that might get in the way. A teen who is reluctant, a schedule that is hard to work around, a school or employer deadline, a prior evaluation you aren’t sure still applies. We talk it through now rather than later.
Your questions. Fees, timeline, what testing involves, what you receive at the end, how the report can be used. You should leave the call clear on all of it.
After the call, if we both decide to go ahead, you’ll receive intake paperwork and a testing date.
