This evaluation incorporates a personalized clinical interview and health screenings to ensure every facet of your well-being is considered during the diagnostic phase.
Tell me about the initial consultation
Think of your first appointment as a supportive exploration of your personal history. It is a compassionate space designed to identify your objectives and hurdles. We will review your medical past and previous neurodivergent traits to build a sustainable care strategy that fits your unique daily routine.
What should I prepare for my appointment?
Kindly gather any past psychiatric reports, your current list of supplements or prescriptions, and any recent blood work.
