Starting mental health care can feel intimidating, we get it. Whether you're here for an assessment, medication, or therapy, the first step is the same: a low-pressure, 20-minute consultation.

  • No pressure to book anything after

  • Just a quick chat to understand your needs and explore fit

::: First Steps :::

  • Choose which provider you would like to begin working with.

    Then, select a time that works for you to meet virtually and answer a few questions to help us prepare for the consultation.

  • Step 2 of a guide, titled 'Have a 20-Minute Chat' in bold orange text on a white background with a light gray border.

    In this casual, virtual consultation, we’ll talk about your goals, questions, and what kind of support might help.

  • Step 3 of a process represented by an arrow with the text "Pick a Path" in the center.

    Based on your needs and preferences, we’ll work together to determine an initial service; assessment, medication, or therapy.

  • A step-by-step process arrow labeled 'Complete Intake Forms' with a number 4 in a circle, indicating the completion of intake forms in a procedure or guide.

    You'll fill out a few secure online forms before your first full session - just some additional information to help us show up for you more effectively, and several standard agreements/releases.

  • A directional sign with a rounded left side and a pointed right side, featuring text that reads "Start Your First Appointment" and a number 5 in a circle at the top left.

    Begin your personalized care journey, with someone who gets it. This appointment can either be in-person or through our secure virtual platform.
