Breathe – you did the hardest part.

We look forward to meeting you at your appointment!

Congratulations! By now we hope you’ve contacted us and taken the first step (if not, click here…you can do this)! If you are feeling nervous about meeting with your psychologist, that’s completely normal. Your psychologist understands and will use that first appointment to make you feel at ease, answer your questions, learn about you, and offer you hope by recommending a plan specific to you.

If your appointment is in person and you are not feeling well, please message us on your Therapy Portal account. We will still see you online in the comfort and privacy of your home.
