A proven process where every next step is clear.
Beginning psychiatric care can feel vulnerable. Kirsten’s process is designed to make each step understandable, personal, and collaborative.
Five steps, start to follow-up
- 01
Schedule your free 15-minute consultation
This brief conversation allows you or a parent or guardian to ask questions, understand the practice, and determine whether moving forward makes sense.
The consultation is not a psychiatric evaluation, does not include treatment recommendations, and is not intended for urgent or emergency needs.
- 02
Complete secure intake information
If the practice is a fit, clinical history and other sensitive information are collected securely inside the practice’s healthcare system rather than through a public web form.
- 03
Meet for a comprehensive evaluation
Kirsten learns about current symptoms, medical and psychiatric history, past medications, family context, goals, daily life, and previous treatment experiences.
- 04
Create a personalized plan
The plan may include medication, therapeutic strategies, testing when appropriate, lifestyle considerations, and coordination with other providers.
- 05
Review, adjust, and stay connected
Treatment evolves. Follow-up appointments provide time to discuss response, side effects, questions, progress, and changing needs.
What personalized follow-up means
- More time for questions
- Thoughtful medication adjustments
- Communication between appointments
- Coordination with other providers
- Follow-up based on individual need
- Clear next steps after each appointment
Private-pay by design
Fees are clear before care is confirmed
Private-pay care allows more flexibility in visit length, communication, and treatment planning. Fee information is provided before care is confirmed, and superbills may be available for patients who choose to seek out-of-network reimbursement.
