First visit

What to expect when you come in

A private conversation

Your first session is mostly listening — history, current concerns, and what's brought you in, at your pace.

A clear plan

You'll leave with a plain-language explanation of what's going on and the options available, medication or otherwise.

Follow-up, on your terms

Review appointments are scheduled around how you're responding — nothing is one-size-fits-all.

A note on privacy

Seeking help is not a weakness — and it stays between us.

Every consultation is confidential. Many patients' first step is simply this website; the second step, whenever you're ready, is a phone call or an email — no walk-in pressure, no waiting room questions.
